The charge of proton and electron is equal in magnitude that is 1.6\times 10^{-19} C. The distance between electron and proton is 0.5 \AA or 5\times 10^{-11} m.

Force exerted on electron by proton is calculated as follows:

F= \left | \frac{kq_{e}q_{p}}{r^{2}} \right |

Here, k is Coulomb's constant, q_{p} is charge on proton,  q_{e} charge on electron and r is distance between them.

Putting the values,

F= \left | \frac{(8.99\times 10^{9}N m^{2}/C^{2})(1.6\times 10^{-19} C)(1.6\times 10^{-19} C)}{(5\times 10^{-11} m)^{2}} \right |=9.2\times 10^{-8} N

Now, according to second law of Newton,

F=m_{e}a

Here, m_{e} is mass of electron and a is acceleration.

Also, 1 N=1 kgm/s^{2}

Rearranging,

a=\frac{F}{m_{e}}=\frac{9.2\times 10^{-8} Kg m/s^{2}}{9.11\times 10^{-31} kg}=1.01\times 10^{23} m/s^{2}

Thus, the acceleration of an electron in this atom is 1.01\times 10^{23} m/s^{2}.

The acceleration of an electron in this atom = a = 1.009.10²⁰ m/s²

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Rutherford scientists experimented with firing alpha rays on a thin gold plate

From here comes the Rutherford atomic model which states that the initiate consists of positively charged particles and negatively charged electrons around the nucleus

Inside the atom consists of a nucleus containing 3 basic particles namely protons and neutrons, while electrons move around the nucleus.

The charge of 1 proton is equal to a charge of 1 electron, but the sign is different.

The proton is positively charged (+1), the electron is negatively charged (-1). and neutrons not charged (neutral)

For a charge of 1 electron = e = 1.66.10⁻¹⁹ coulomb

Whereas the neutron charge = 0

This atomic unit uses the standard atomic mass, that is, the C-12 isotope

1 C-12 atom = 12 atomic mass units

1 atomic mass unit = 1/12 x mass 1 atom C-12

The mass of 1 proton is equal to the mass of 1 neutron, equal to 1 atomic mass unit and electrons have a smaller mass than both.

electron mass = 9.11.10-28 g

proton mass = 1.6726.10-24 g

neutron mass = 1,675.10-24 g

Coulomb stated the law that between two points / charged particles with a certain distance there is a force that arises between the two points

This style can repel or attract each other

Can be formulated

\large{\boxed{\bold{F=\frac{k.Q1.Q2}{r^2}}}}

k =  8.99 x 10⁹ Nm² / C²

While the electron charge = proton charge = 1.60 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

While the distance from the proton and electron is: 5.0 × 10¹¹ m

So the style that arises is:

F =  8.99 x 10⁹. (1.60 x 10⁻¹⁹)² / (5.0 × 10¹¹)²

F = 9.2.10⁻⁸

Then the acceleration of an electron, from Newtton's Law

a = F/m

a =  9.2.10⁻⁸/ 9.11.10⁻²⁸ g

a = 1.009.10²⁰ m/s²

Composition about my favorite sport in french​
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Le football est mon sport préféré. C'est aussi un sport célèbre dans le monde entier. En jouant au football, nous pouvons garder notre corps fort, en forme et flexible, jouer au football est un bon exercice et bon pour la santé. Il a besoin d'un terrain spacieux. Le nombre de joueurs nécessaires pour ce jeu est de vingt-deux. Il y a deux groupes. Chaque groupe compte onze joueurs. Chaque groupe a un gardien de but. Il y a un centre à partir duquel le jeu commence avec l'arbitre. Il a le pouvoir de commenter le bien ou le mal. Les joueurs doivent respecter les règles du sport. Si un joueur lui désobéit, il est disqualifié et sort du terrain de jeu. Lorsque le but est marqué des supporters, la joie n’a pas de limite. Des applaudissements passionnants sont visibles lorsqu'un but est marqué. Cette pièce est originaire d'Angleterre. Ensuite, il s'est répandu dans presque tous les coins et recoins du monde. Sa popularité augmente de jour en jour.

What orbital do the transition metals finish their electron configuration in
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

d orbitals

Explanation:

Transition  metals are generally known as d-block elements. The electronic configuration of all transition elements finish in a d-orbital weather they are first row, second row or third row transition elements. This is the thread that holds all the elements of the transition series together.

This is why elements of the transition series are generally called the d-block elements.

Given 6193 mL of a gas at 62.3 °C. What is its volume at 38.1 °C?
Luden [163]

Answer:

5746.0 mL.

Explanation:

We can use the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

If n and P are constant, and have two different values of V and T:

<em>V₁T₂ = V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 6193.0 mL, T₁ = 62.3°C + 273 = 335.3 K.

V₂ = ??? mL, T₂ = 38.1°C + 273 = 311.1 K.

<em>∴ V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁ </em>= (6193.0 mL)(311.1 K)/(335.3 K) = <em>5746.0 mL.</em>
