kramer

Answer:

Thomson  placed two magnets on either side of the tube, and observed that this magnetic field also deflected the cathode ray. The results of these experiments helped Thomson determine the mass-to-charge ratio of the cathode ray particles, which led to a fascinating discovery, minus the mass of each particle was much, much smaller than that of any known atom. Thomson repeated his experiments using different metals as electrode materials, and found that the properties of the cathode ray remained constant no matter what cathode material they originated from. From this evidence, Thomson made the following conclusions:

The cathode ray is composed of negatively-charged particles.

The particles must exist as part of the atom, since the mass of each particle is only ~1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen atom.

These subatomic particles can be found within atoms of all elements.

While controversial at first, Thomson's discoveries were gradually accepted by scientists. Eventually, his cathode ray particles were given a more familiar name: electrons. The discovery of the electron disproved the part of Dalton's atomic theory that assumed atoms were indivisible. In order to account for the existence of the electrons, an entirely new atomic model was needed.

having that coloration is selected for since many predators will recognize it and stay away. Therefore the common coloration is
garri49 [273]

Answer: Natural selection.

Explanation:

The natural selection is the process by which the organism that best suits the characters will survive and the organism which cannot adapt the changes will die.

The predators feed on their prey and the organism which hides easily in the environment due to its color is safe and the animals that cannot camouflage will die.

This is natural selection that more favored character is carried out over generations and other that cannot survive die.

500.0 mL of a gas is collected at 745.0 mm Hg. what what will the volume be at standard pressure
Irina-Kira [14]
This is an application of Boyle's law:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂. we don't have to convert volume and pressure to standard forms. we can even use the pressure with mmHg
1 atm = 760 mmHg 
V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂ = 745 x 500 / 760 = 490 ml
Note that here we assume constant temperature

Solve and show work. Li2S + 2 HNO3 --> 2 LiNO3 + H2S (a) Calculate the mass of lithium sulfide that will react with 250 mL of
Elenna [48]

Li2S + 2 HNO3 --> 2 LiNO3 + H2S

Li2 S  +   H2 N2 O2  -->   Li2 N2 O5   +   H2 S

Li S + H2 N2 O5 -> Li N2 O5 + H2 S

Li2 S2 + H4 N4 O10 -->  Li2 N4 O10 + H4 S2

Li^2  S^2  +  H^4 N^4 O^10  --> Li^2 N^4  O^10  +  H^4 S^2
