A scientist develops a new experiment to test atomic theory. His results do not agree with the theory.

Answer:

When the results of a new experiment to test atomic theory do not agree with the theory, scientist will repeat the experiment to make sure that his results are reliable.

Explanation:

In the scientific context, each new experiment must be performed with precision and following the steps of the scientific method.

An experiment that does not provide reliable data to demonstrate a theory must be reviewed in detail and performed again to confirm the data obtained in the first attempt.

A theory is a postulate that tries to explain a natural phenomenon, but whose argument can be discussed or does not have the acceptance of a law. When the theory is proven and there are no arguments against it, it can be universally accepted and becomes a law.

The other options are not valid due to:

  • <u><em>Scientists worldwide will reject atomic theory because of the new results</em></u><em>.  A theory cannot be discarded without solid arguments or evidence in order to dismiss it and establish a new one.</em>
  • <u><em>The scientist will change his results to agree with the accepted theory</em></u><em>.  This would be an unethical procedure and unacceptable to the scientific community.</em>
  • <em><u>Other scientists will reject the results because they do not agree with the theory</u></em><em>. The opinion of other scientists is not enough to dismiss a theory, if it has a valid scientific basis.</em>

Do you expect the O---O bond in H2O2 to be longer or shorter than the O---O bond in O2?
melomori [17]

Answer : The O-O bond in H_2O_2 will be longer than the O-O bond in O_2.

Explanation :

In the H_2O_2, the two oxygen atoms are bonded by the single bond and in O_2, the two oxygen atoms are bonded by the double bond.

As we know, the bond strength of double bond is greater than the single bond.

And the relation between the bond strength and bond length is,

\text{ Bond strength}\propto \frac{1}{\text{ Bond length}}

That means the higher the strength, the shorter will be the bond length.

Hence, the bond length of single bond will be longer than the double bond.

The structure of given molecule is shown below.

Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells. They are found in both animal and plant cells but are much larger in plant cells. Vacuoles might store food or any variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive. They can even store waste products so the rest of the cell is protected from contamination.

The coordination compound Co3[Cr(CN)6]2 contains Co2+ cations and a complex anion. What is the likely oxidation state for Cr in
otez555 [7]

Answer:

-3

Explanation:

The oxidation state or oxidation number of an atom is the total number of electrons that an atom either gains or loses in order to form a chemical bond with another atom.

The complex anion here is [Cr(CN)6]3-.

Now, as the oxidation state of CN or cyanide ligand is -1, and if we suppose the oxidation state of Cr to be 'x', then; x - 6 = -3 (overall charge on the anion),

so x= +3. Hence the oxidation state of Chromium in this complex hexacyanochromium (III) anion comes out to be -3.
