The list of choices from which you have to check all that apply is:

  • Particles of the cathode rays are fundamental to all matter.
  • In the atom, the particles of the cathode rays are embedded in a diffuse cloud of positive charge.
  • Matter contains negative charge and by inference positive charge.
  • There are subatomic size particles in an atom.
  • Cathode rays have mass.

Answer:

The correct choices are:

  • Particles of the cathode rays are fundamental to all matter.
  • Matter contains negative charge and by inference positive charge.
  • There are subatomic size particles in an atom.
  • Cathode rays have mass.

Explanation:

From the five statements, only the second one,<em> In the atom, the particles of the cathode rays are embedded in a diffuse cloud of positive charge, </em><em>is not validated by the data Thomson collected in his experiments.</em>

<em />

Nevertheless, he conjectured that that was the right structure and proposed the famous Plum Pudding Model of the atom, which ended not being correct.

The cathode rays are streams of negatively charged particles produced in an electrode. As, those rays did not change for different kind of electrodes or gases, it was concluded that they were present in all the forms of matter. So, this validate the first statement, <em>Particles of the cathode rays are fundamental to all matter.</em>

Thomson determined the ratio charge/mass for these particles of the cathode rays and found that the mass was much smaller than the mass of the lightest atom (hydrogen atom). This meant that there were particles smaller than the atom. This validates the fourth and fifth statements: <em>There are subatomic size particles in an atom and Cathode rays have mass.</em>

<em />

Since, the matter is electrically neutral, the fact that there are negative particles meant that there are also positive charges that balance the charge of the atom making in neutral. This is the third statement <em>Matter contains negative charge and by inference positive charge.</em>

<em></em>

As already stated, this does not say where and how the negative and positive charges are in the atoms, so the second statement, <em>In the atom, the particles of the cathode rays are embedded in a diffuse cloud of positive charge, </em>is not validated by the data Thomson collected.

motikmotik

Answer:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Explanation:

Zn + HCl → ZnCl2 +

The complete equation is given below:

Zn+ HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Now we can balance the equation by doing the following:

There are 2 atoms of Cl and 2 atoms of H on the left. This can be balanced by putting 2 in front of HCl as shown below:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

What is the molality of a solution that has 4 mol of KCI in 0.800 kg of water
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Option A. 4mol/0.800Kg

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mole of solute = 4 moles

Mass of water = 0.800Kg

Molality =.?

Molality of a solution is simply defined as the mole of solute per unit kilogram of solvent. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole of solute / Kg of solvent

With the above formula, we can obtain the molality of KCl solution as follow:

Molality = 4mol/0.800Kg
