As there was no electric charge on neutrons, and they did not get affected by electromagnetic fields.

Explanation:

The functions of the neutron in atoms is:

To hold the nuclei with coulombic repulsion between the protons.

The neutron has no charge on it and hence were not discovered.

Its mass is slightly less than the proton.

It provides stability to the atom.

Lord Chadwick is credited to prove the existence and discovery of neutron.

He proved that the nucleus of the atom has its mass in the centre as neutron+ proton.

He bombarded beryllium with alpha particles, and found high energy radiation.

A 2 L container contains 5 moles of helium gas at 0.5 atm. What is the<br> temperature of the gas?
lara [203]

Answer:

2.44 K IS THE TEMPERATURE OF THE GAS

Explanation:

PV = nRT

P = 0.5 atm

V = 2 L

n = 5 moles

R = 0.082 L atm mol^-1 K^-1

T = ?

Substituting for T in the equation, we obtain:

T = P V / nR

T = 0.5 * 2 / 5 * 0.082

T = 1 / 0.41

T = 2.44 K

The temperature of the gas is 2.44 K

15g of magnesium (II) oxide decomposes, find the number of oxygen particles produced at 100% yield.
erastova [34]

2.258625 *10²³ oxygen atoms will be produced.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Decomposition reaction is defined as the type of reaction where one single reactant breaks to produce more than one product only by means of heat or other external factor.

Formula of magnesium oxide = MgO.

The molecular mass of magnesium oxide = 24 +16= 40.

So in 40 grams of magnesium oxide, number of molecules is 6.023 * 10²³.

So in 15 grams of magnesium oxide,, number of molecules is 6.023 *1023 * 15/40 = 2.258625 *10²³.

From one molecule of magnesium oxide, one oxide atom will be produced.

So number of oxide atoms with 100% yeild = 2.258625 *10²³
