Answer:

Joliot-Curie was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1935 for their discovery of artificial radioactivity.

Explanation:

this made the Curies the family with the most Nobel laureates to date. She was also one of the first three women to be a member of a French government, becoming undersecretary for Scientific Research, under the Popular Front in 1936. Both children of the Joliot-Curies, Hélène and Pierre, are also esteemed scientists.

Answer:

1. Hidracidas a. MX

2 Acidas c. MHXO

3. Oxacidas b. MXO

4. Basicas d. M(OH)X

Explanation:

¡Hola!

En este caso, de acuerdo con el concepto de sal, la cual está generalmente dada por la presencia de al menos un metal y un no metal, es posible encontrar cuatro tipos de estas; hidrácidas, oxácidas, básicas y ácidas, en las que las primeras dos son neutras pero la segunda tiene presencia de oxígeno, la tercera tiene iones hidróxido adicionales y la cuarta iones hidrógeno de más.

Debido a la anterior, es posible relacionar cada pareja de la siguiente manera:

1. Hidracidas a. MX

2 Acidas c. MHXO

3. Oxacidas b. MXO

4. Basicas d. M(OH)XO

En las que M se refiere a un metal, X a un no metal, H a hidrógeno y O a oxígeno.

¡Saludos!

Which of the following substances heats the fastest?

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Zinc

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity can be described as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degrees Celsius. It is represented by C or S. The greater the carrying capacity of a substance, the more will be the heat required for that substance.

As we can see in the information given in the question, the specific heat capacity of zinc is the lowest as compared to steel, water and aluminium. Hence, zinc is the correct option.

Describe Rutherford's contribution to the atomic model.

Nady [450]

Answer:

Rutherford's experiment, also known as

$\alpha - scattering \: experiment$

supports the existence of neutrons and the nucleus.

Explanation:

In the above diagram, Rutherford was trying to explain his contributions using thin foils of gold and other metals as targets for alpha particles from a radioactive source.

He observed that the majority of particles penetrated the foil either undeflected or with only a slight deflection. But, every now and then an alpha particle was scattered(or deflected) at a large angle..

According to Rutherford, most of the atoms must be empty space. This explains why the majority of alpha particles passed through through the gold foil with little or no deflection. The atoms positive charges, Rutherford proposed are all concentrated in the Nucleus, which is a dense central core within the atom.

Whenever an alpha particle came close to a nucleus in the scattering experiment, it experienced a large repulsive force and therefore a large deflection. Moreover, an alpha particle coming towards a nucleus would be completely repelled and its direction would be reversed. The positively charged particles in the Nucleus are called Protons.

I hope you find this useful... Have a lovely day.
