The claim: "If the nucleus were the size of a grape, the electrons would be one mile away on average" is reasonably accurate because the ratios between the nucleus's sizes and the distances (between electrons and nucleus) for the two given examples are in the same order of magnitude.
To know if the claim is accurate we need to calculate the ratio of the size of the nucleus (the same as a grape) and the distance between the electrons and the nucleus for example 1 (r₁):
(1)
and to compare it with the ratio of the size and the distance given in example 2 (r₂):
(2)
<em>Where:</em>
s₁: is the size of the nucleus (like the size of a grape)
d₁: is the distance between electrons and nucleus of example 1 = 1 mile
s₂: is the average diameter of the nucleus = 10⁻¹³ cm
d₂: is the average distance between electrons and nucleus of example 2 = 10⁻⁸ cm
Assuming that the diameter of a grape is 3 cm (in a spherical way), the ratio of the <u>first example</u> is (eq 1):

Now, the ratio of the <u>second example</u> is (eq 2):
Since r₁ and r₂ are in the same order of magnitude (10⁻⁵), we can conclude that the given claim is reasonably accurate.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
When Methyl Pentene is introduced in a chemical reaction with dichloromethane then the major product will be bromomethylpentene. There can be small amount of bromo methyl pentene than the amount of methyl pentene introduced for reaction.
Answer:
To allow all the elements or compounds to separate complete.
Explanation:
In chromatography, the compounds need some space and time to separate, one from each other, if you just use the half of the paper strip maybe you will not notice the different spots of compounds. Remember all the substances have different affinity for the solvents, that means, some react very quickly but others need more time as the colors that conform the black color in an ink.
Hello!
Mercury is the only metal that takes liquid form at room temperature.
The metal is also very toxic to humans, so "playing with it" is a bad idea
this metal used to be used in thermometers, but most of them today don't use mercury anymore
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
