The nucleus while large has a small ratio of mass when dealing with atoms, they are very spread out and are mostly solid with a blocky shape.
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct option is :Atoms are made up of mostly empty space.

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford’s gold foil experiment has following observation:

  • Most of the alpha particles had easily escaped through the atom which accounts for that atom is mostly empty space.
  • Very less number of alpha particles were deflected from their path which indicated that positive charge is only concentrated in the center of the atom which termed as nucleus of an atom where positively charged i.e protons are located.
  • Whole the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus of the atom.

Hydrocarbons consisting of short carbon chains are ________.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Hydrocarbons with short chain lengths are more volatile than those with longer chains. A practical example of this can be seen in the first few members of the alkane series. They are mostly gaseous in nature and this is quite a contrast to the next few members which are solid in nature.

As we move down the group, we can see that there is an increase in the number of solids. Hence, as we go down the group we can see a relative increase in order and thus we expect more stability at room temperature compared to the volatility of the shorter chain

Which is the largest atomic radius
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

₁₁A

Explanation:

Atomic radius

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons.

This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases.

So in given elements consider A₁₁, B₁₂, C₁₃ ans D₁₇ as sodium, magnesium, aluminium and chlorine. This is the third period and as we move form sodium to chlorine atomic radius decreases. That's why sodium has greater size.

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased

II. Binding Forces A. Write a brief, one or two sentence, description of each binding force listed below. 1. London dispersion f
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

All description is given in explanation.

Explanation:

Van der Waals forces:

It is the general term used to describe the attraction or repulsion between the molecules. Vander waals force consist of two types of forces:

1.  London dispersion forces

2.  Dipole-dipole forces

1. London dispersion forces:

These are the weakest intermolecular forces. These are the temporary because when the electrons of atoms come close together they create temporary dipole, one end of an atom where the electronic density is high is create negative pole while the other becomes positive . These forces are also called induce dipole- induce dipole interaction.

2.  Dipole-dipole forces:

These are attractive forces , present between the molecules that are permanently polar. They are present between the positive end of one polar molecules and the negative end of the other polar molecule.

Hydrogen bonding:

It is the electrostatic attraction present between the atoms which are chemically bonded. The one atom is hydrogen while the other electronegative atoms are oxygen, nitrogen or flourine. This is weaker than covalent and ionic bond.

Ionic bond or electrostatic attraction:

It is the electrostatic attraction present between the oppositely charged ions. This is formed when an atom loses its electron and create positive charge and other atom accept its electron and create negative charge.

Hydrophobic interaction:

It is the interaction between the water and hydrophobic material. The hydrophobic materials are long chain carbon containing compound. These or insoluble in water.

Covalent bond:

These compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms of same elements are between the different element's atoms. The covalent bond is less stronger than ionic bond so require less energy to break as compared to the energy require to break the ionic bond.
