How did Thomson measure the charge to mass ratio of the electron? a.He shot helium nuclei into gold foil to measure the nuclei s

cattering against electrons within. b.He passed cathode rays through a magnetic field and measured the deflection. c.He suspended a drop of oil between electrodes to measure the electric field from the electrons. d. He measured very precisely a known quantity of hydrogen atoms and calculated the reduced mass ratio within each atom.

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "He passed cathode rays through a magnetic field and measured the deflection".

Explanation:

J. J. Thomson was a notorious scientist that did not only made the discovery of the electron, but he measure its charge to mass ratio. In order to determine this property, Thomson passed cathode rays through a magnetic field and measured the deflection. Cathode rays are actually composed of particles, which are now known as electrons, and its charge to mass ratio is about 10^8 coulomb per gram.

Why are you so much older on Mercury?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:As you can see from the very different numbers in the boxes above, your age changes (sometimes quite a lot) ... Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and so has a smaller orbit path – it takes just 88 Earth days

Problem PageQuestion Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume
IgorC [24]

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 3.16 L of chlorine were consumed at STP.

Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm  (at STP)

V = Volume of gas = 3.16 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =273K=

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{1atm\times 3.16L}{0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 273K}=0.141moles

CH_4+4Cl_2\rightarrow 4HCl+CCl_4

According to stoichiometry:

4 moles of chlorine produces = 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride

Thus 0.141 moles of methane produces = \frac{1}{4}\times 0.141=0.0352 moles of carbon tetrachloride

volume of carbon tetrachloride =moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=0.0352mol\times 22.4L/mol=0.788L

Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

The mixing of which pair of reactants will result in a precipitation reaction?
Maru [420]

Answer:

K2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)

Explanation:

K2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)= 2KNO3(aq) + BaSO4(s)

The reaction produces BaSO4

Which precipitates as the insoluble product and Soluble KNO3 solution
