Answer:
C
Explanation:
This experiment by Rutherford involved the firing of alpha particles at gold foils. It is also. called the gold foil experiment.
He fired these alpha particles at different points. He noticed that at some points, there were deflections, while at some other points, there were no deflections. It is necessary to state that these alpha particles are positively charged. For there to be a deflection, there must have been a kind of repulsion between the gold foil and the alpha particles.
From the basic physics of like repels like, he knew for sure that there must be dense positive core in the atom that is causing the deflection of the alpha particles. This enabled him to come up with the theory that the atom contained a small dense positive core called the nucleus
Answer:
D
Explanation:
It is also known as the Dalton’s law of partial pressure. Given a confinement that contains a mixture of gases which do not mix, the total pressure equals the sum of the individual pressures.
The term, which do not mix is necessary because, if the gases are the type that mix, the law will no longer hold as they would have given up their individual identities and hence their individual partial pressure cannot be use to access them anymore.
Hence, the law helps to sum the totality of the pressures of a number of gases which exists together in a confinement and they do not mix. Say we have 3 gases A, B and C. The total pressure is the sum of pressure A, pressure B and pressure C.
Answer:
A chemical equation is balanced when the number of each kind of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction.
Explanation:
The law of conservation of matter (except in nuclear reactions) indicates that atoms can neither be created or destroyed.
The number of atoms that are in the reactants must be the same as the number of the atoms that are in the product.
The number and types of molecules can (and will) change. The atoms that make up the molecules are rearranged but the number and kinds of atoms stay the same.
