What experimental evidence did Thomson have for each statement?

Minchanka [31]

<span>Thomson studied electric discharge in a vacuum and found that the deflection of rays was evidence of atoms containing much smaller particles. He calculated that these particles would have a large charge in relation to their mass. While he did not name electrons, he knew they existed.</span>

(a) A gas fills completely the

ohaa [14]

Answer:

a)The force of attraction between particles of gas is negligible. Because of this, particles of gas move in all directions. Thus, a gas fills the vessel completely in which it is kept.

b)Because of negligible force of attraction between particles of gas, the particles of gas have the highest kinetic energy. These properties enable the particles of gas to move in all directions and hit the walls of container from all sides. Because of this a gas exerts pressure on the walls of the container in which it is kept.

a rectangular piece of aluminum foil measures 13.72 cm x 8.63 cm and has a mass of 3.1 g. Find how thick it is

Leona [35]

The two dimensions of aluminum foil are given 13.72 cm and 8.63 cm respectively with mass 3.1 g.

The density of aluminum is $2.7 g/cm^{3}$ . It is defined as mass per unit volume thus, volume of aluminum can be calculated as follows:

$V=\frac{m}{d}$

Putting the values.

$V=\frac{3.1 g}{2.7 g/cm^{3}}=1.148 cm^{3}$

The volume of cuboid is $l\times b\times h$ , the length and breadth are given, height can be calculated as follows;

$h=\frac{V}{l\times b}$

Putting the values,

$h=\frac{1.148 cm^{3}}{(13.72 cm)(8.63 cm)}=0.009695 cm$

Or, approximately 9.7\times 10^{-3}cm

Therefore, thickness of aluminum foil is $9.7\times 10^{-3}cm$

atch the following aqueous solutions with the appropriate letter from the column on the right. fill in the blank 1 A 1. 0.20 m N

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Highest boiling point - 0.43 m Urea

Second highest boiling point - 0.20 m NiSO4

Third highest boiling point - 0.19 m NH4I

Lowest boiling point - 0.17 m NH4NO3

Explanation:

We know that;

ΔT = kb m i

Where;

ΔT = boiling point elevation

kb = boiling point constant

m = molality of the solution

i = Van't Hoff factor

For NiSO4 , NH4I and NH4NO3 , the Van't Hoff factor, i = 2

But for Urea, the Van't Hoff factor, i = 1

We also have to consider both the values of the molality and Van't Hoff factor , knowing that a higher molality and a higher Van't Hoff factor leads to a higher ΔT and consequently a higher boiling point.

This facts above account for the arrangement of substances shown in the answer.
