Which of dalton's postulates about atoms are inconsistent with later observations? do these inconsistencies mean that dalton was

wrong? is dalton's model still useful? explain?
Chemistry

Neporo4naja [7]2 years ago
6 0

1)  Dalton stated that atom is matter that can not be divided, but it is proved that the atom can be divided into subatomic particles  (electrons, protons and neutrons).

2) He stated that atoms of one element can not be changed into atoms of other  elements, but now that is possible by nuclear reactions.

Today we still use his postulate: Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form stable compounds, for example H₂O.

How is a nuclear weapon engineered?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:The first task of a nuclear weapon design is to rapidly assemble a supercritical mass of fissile uranium or plutonium. A supercritical mass is one in which the percentage of fission-produced neutrons captured by another fissile nucleus is large enough that each fission event, on average, causes more than one additional fission event. Once the critical mass is assembled, at maximum density, a burst of neutrons is supplied to start as many chain reactions as possible. Early weapons used a modulated neutron generator codenamed "Urchin" inside the pit containing polonium-210 and beryllium separated by a thin barrier. Implosion of the pit crushed the neutron generator, mixing the two metals, thereby allowing alpha particles from the polonium to interact with beryllium to produce free neutrons. In modern weapons, the neutron generator is a high-voltage vacuum tube containing a particle accelerator which bombards a deuterium/tritium-metal hydride target with deuterium and tritium ions. The resulting small-scale fusion produces neutrons at a protected location outside the physics package, from which they penetrate the pit. This method allows better control of the timing of chain reaction initiation.

What is the oxidation state of cl in hclo4?
Irina-Kira [14]
There is 1 H atom: (1)(+1) = +1 The oxidation number of O is -2. There are 4 O atoms here: (4)(-2) = -8 So the oxidation state of Cl is +7.

NOTE: The maximum positive oxidation number for chlorine is +7,<span> the same as its group number (VII).</span>
