Answer;
-(2) An atom is mostly empty space.
Experiment
-Rutherford conducted the "gold foil" experiment where he shot alpha particles at a thin sheet of gold. The conclusion that can be drawn from these experiment is that an atom is mostly empty space.
-Rutherford found that a small percentage of the particles were deflected, while a majority passed through the sheet. This caused Rutherford to conclude that the mass of an atom was concentrated at its center, as the tiny, dense nucleus was causing the deflections.
Answer: 1s²2s²2p³ or it can also be 3s²2p³

- highest energy level for lithium
<u>A</u><u>N</u><u>S</u><u>W</u><u>E</u><u>R</u><u> </u><u>:</u>
- There are 2 electrons on the first energy level and 1 electron on the second. Explain that the first energy level can only have 2 electrons so the next electron in lithium is on the next (second) level. Explain that neon has 10 protons and 10 electrons.
the big number describes the number ratio in a chemical equation
so for example,
2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O means
2 moles of hydrogen reacts with one mole of oxygen to form 2 moles of water
and as you know, the small (subscript) number determines the number of atoms of that element in one molecule of a compound
so I believe that drawing a normal lewis structure ( O=O ) should be correct
The major carbon sources (reservoirs that release more carbon than absorbed) are: deforestation and fossil fuels
The major carbon sinks (reservoirs that absorb more carbon than released) are:
soil, oceans and plants.
When scientists calculate the amount of carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere vs the released the amount of carbon, a large amount is unaccounted for and the total does not add up. This is why scientists believe there is an undiscovered carbon sink somewhere.
