Answer:
C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.
Explanation:
In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.
He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.
The atomic mass of K is 39
from Avogadro's law
39g of K contains 6.02x10^23 atoms
therefore if
39=6.02x19^23
X=5.11×10^22
making X the subject of the formula
X= (5.11×10^22×39)÷6.02×10^23
X= 33g
Boiling point of a compound is determined by the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules present in it. Stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction, higher will be the boiling point.
Ionic compounds show ion-ion interactions which are the strongest among all. Ion-dipole interactions are shown when ionic solutes are dissolved in polar solvents. Hydrogen bonding is also a relatively stronger force that is present between H atom and an electronegative atom like F, O and N(
) . All polar molecules show dipole-dipole interaction (
and
). Dispersion forces are the weakest intermolecular forces due to momentary dipoles between electron clouds and nucleus.
Among the given compounds,
has dispersion forces as the major intermolecular forces of attraction. So they they exhibit the weakest IMF, hence have the lowest boiling point.
