The “fatal flaw” in Rutherford’s model of the atom was the idea that if the electrons were ________.

1 answer:

8 0

The correct option is A. Rutherford model of the atom consider an atom to be made up of a central nucleus with electrons orbiting around it. The nucleus is considered to be tiny, heavy and its positively charged while the electrons are negatively charged. The shortcoming of this model is that it was not able to explain how the positive nucleus was not able to attract the negative electrons and pull them inside the nucleus.

The Difference Between an Alloy and an Amalgam

Delicious77 [7]

Mixtures or combinations of various different metals or metallic substances form things called alloys. An alloy composed of mercury and other metal (or metals) forms "amalgam". When a true alloy is created, the component metals are combined together at a temperature which is greater than the melting point of all of them.

Also, it helps to remember the word "amalgamate", which means "to alloy (a metal) with mercury" according to Dictionary.com.

Hope this helped :)

Determine the molality of a solution of methanol dissolved in ethanol for which the mole fraction of methanol is 0.135. Give you

Alja [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The molality of the solution is 0.11 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mole fraction of methanol = 0.135

This means that 0.135 moles of methanol is present in 1 mole of a solution

Moles of ethanol = 1 - 0.135 = 0.865 moles

To calculate the mass for given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of ethanol = 0.865 moles

Molar mass of ethanol = 46 g/mol

$0.865mol=\frac{\text{Mass of ethanol}}{46g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of ethanol}=(0.865mol\times 46g/mol}=39.79g$

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

$Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}$

Where,

$m_{solute}$ = Given mass of solute (methanol) = 0.135 g

$M_{solute}$ = Molar mass of solute (methanol) = 32 g/mol

$W_{solvent}$ = Mass of solvent (ethanol) = 39.79 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molality of methanol}=\frac{0.135\times 1000}{32\times 39.79}\\\\\text{Molality of methanol}=0.106m\approx 0.11m$

Hence, the molality of the solution is 0.11 m
