Thomson concluded that electrons must be parts of the atoms of all elements. Millikan determined the charge and mass of the electron. What experimental evidence led Rutherford to conclude that an atom is mostly empty space? The majority of the alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil.

Which element has a greater electronegativity?<br> fluorine (9) or radium (88)
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Fluorine

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Periodic Trends
  • Electronegativity - the tendency for an element to attract an electron to itself
  • Z-effective and Coulomb's Law, Forces of Attraction

Explanation:

The Periodic Trend for Electronegativity is up and to the right of the Periodic Table.

Fluorine is Element 9 and has 9 protons. Radium is Element 88 and has 88 protons. Therefore, Radium has a bigger Zeff than Flourine.

However, since Radium is in Period 7 while Fluorine is in Period 2, Radium has more core e⁻ than Fluorine does. This will create a much larger shielding effect, causing Radium's outermost e⁻ to have less FOA between them. Fluorine, since it has less core e⁻, the FOA between the nucleus and outershell e⁻ will be much stronger.

Therefore, Fluorine would attract an electron more than Radium, thus bringing us to the conclusion that Fluorine has a higher electronegativity.

The observation, in this case, is quantitative.

<h3>Quantitative observation</h3>

Quantitative observations are observations that can be recorded based on quantitative data. In other words, they are observations that can be assigned numerical values.

Quantitative observations are as opposed to qualitative observations because the former cannot be assigned numerical values. They can be ranked or qualified.

In this case, Danielle and Heather could assign numbers to the length, width, and height of the tank in order to calculate its volume.

Different between a bird and a rat​
Bess [88]

Explanation:

Rats and mice are both rodents, so look similar - the biggest difference is their size. Rats are larger and heavier while mice have smaller slender bodies. Mice also have long slender tails (for their body size) covered in hair compared to rat tails which are shorter, thicker and hairless

2. Calculate the number of moles represented by the following masses.
aliina [53]

a. There are 1.85 moles in 2.00 × 10² g of silver (Ag).

b. There are 0.618 moles in 37.1 g of silicon dioxide (SiO₂)

<h3>What is the molar mass?</h3>

The molar mass is the mass in grams of 1 mole of particles, that is, the mass in grams of 6.02 × 10²³ particles. The units are g/mol.

We want to calculate the number of moles represented by different masses of different substances. In each case, the conversion factor between mass and moles is the molar mass.

  • a. 2.00 × 10² g of silver (Ag)

The molar mass of silver is 107.87 g/mol.

2.00 × 10² g × (1 mol/107.87 g) = 1.85 mol

  • b. 37.1 g of silicon dioxide (SiO₂)

The molar mass of silicon dioxide is 60.08 g/mol.

37.1 g × (1 mol/60.08 g) = 0.618 mol

a. There are 1.85 moles in 2.00 × 10² g of silver (Ag).

b. There are 0.618 moles in 37.1 g of silicon dioxide (SiO₂)
