Although Rutherford is credited with the famous gold foil scattering experiment, he didn’t actually conduct this experiment hims

elf. It was done by two of his assistants, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden. Do you think it was fair to name the experiment after Rutherford while ignoring the other two scientists? Why or why not? Give credible arguments for your answer

Although he did not do the experiment himself, he had come up with the idea of what to do and how to do it. I think that only Rutherford receiving credit is okay as the assistants did not do anything to contribute to the actual idea of the experiment.
For example, we credit the invention of the iPhone to Steve Jobs, the engineers of Apple, the designers, etc. - those with actual contributions to the invention and the ideas and not the Chinese factory workers - those who construct the iPhone itself.

What is the formula of the compound formed between chlorine and calcium?
VLD [36.1K]

the formula  of the compound that  is formed  between  chlorine and calcium  is CaCl2


explanation

chlorine (non  metal)  react  with Calcium ( a metal)  to  form an ionic compound  CaCl2

Ionic compound   is formed when metal  loses electrons to form cation ( a  positively charged ion)  while  non metal  gains electrons  to  form anion (  a  negatively  charged ion)

An ionic compound is formed when calcium   metal(Ca) loses two electron to form   Ca2+ cation ,  while   2 chlorine atom  gain  one electron each to form cl- anions.


  • when writing  down  the formula  of ionic compound  cation  symbol  is written first  followed by  anion symbol.

Therefore the formula  of ionic compound formed between chlorine  and calcium is CaCl2

What I know about the Alveoli and Gas exchange
Reptile [31]

Explanation:

What happens during gas exchange in the alveoli?

These are called alveoli. They inflate when a person inhales and deflate when a person exhales. During gas exchange oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream. At the same time carbon dioxide passes from the blood to the lungs.

What is the role of alveoli in gas exchange?

The alveoli are where the lungs and the blood exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide during the process of breathing in and breathing out. Oxygen breathed in from the air passes through the alveoli and into the blood and travels to the tissues throughout the body.

Air has a mass of 1.2g and a volume of 4,555ml. What is the density
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

<h2>Density = 0.00026 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3>Density(\rho) =  \frac{mass}{volume}</h3>

From the question

mass of air = 1.2 g

volume = 4,555 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the density

That's

<h3>Density =  \frac{1.2}{4555}</h3>

= 0.0002634

We have the final answer as

<h3>Density = 0.00026 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
