Answer:

Rubidium is used in vacuum tubes as a getter, a material that combines with and removes trace gases from vacuum tubes. It is also used in the manufacture of photocells and in special glasses. Since it is easily ionized, it might be used as a propellant in ion engines on spacecraft.

Symbol: Rb (37)

Atomic Weight: 85.4678

Atomic Number: 37

HELP PLEASE THE OTHER 'ANSWER' ISNT EVEN AN ANSWER!

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

most likely that (2) the replicated experiment was performed incorrectly.

Why, u ask? u dare question me:

1- The initial experiment invalidness cannot be proven.

2- the second answer is correct

3- Different labaratories does not effect the outcome, as long as the parameter and environment of the replicated experiment is the same as when the initial experiment was conducted.

4- Already knowing the data and errors would increase the precision of the replicated experiment.

5- Change in variables should still be in the objective (or purpose) of the experiment, thus, major difference in the outcome should not happen.

happy learning!

A sample compound contains 5.723g Ag, 0.852g S and 1.695g O. Determine its empirical formula.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$Ag_2SO_4$

Explanation:

Formula for the calculation of no. of Mol is as follows:

$mol=\frac{mass\ (g)}{molecular\ mass}$

Molecular mass of Ag = 107.87 g/mol

Amount of Ag = 5.723 g

$mol\ of\ Ag=\frac{5.723\ g}{107.87\ g/mol} =0.05305\ mol$

Molecular mass of S = 32 g/mol

Amount of S = 0.852 g

$mol\ of\ S=\frac{0.852\ g}{32\ g/mol} =0.02657\ mol$

Molecular mass of O = 16 g/mol

Amount of O = 1.695 g

$mol\ of\ O=\frac{1.695\ g}{16\ g/mol} =0.10594\ mol$

In order to get integer value, divide mol by smallest no.

Therefore, divide by 0.02657

$Ag, \frac{0.05305}{0.02657} \approx 2$

$S, \frac{0.02657}{0.02657} \approx 1$

$O, \frac{0.10594}{0.02657} \approx 4$

Therefore, empirical formula of the compound = $Ag_2SO_4$

How can you differentiate the Atomic Structure and the Bohr Model? In other words, how is the Atomic Structure different from th

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in circular paths; whereas in the modern view atomic electron structure is more like 3D standing waves. Bohr built upon Rutherford's model of the atom. ... He believed that electrons moved around the nucleus in circular orbits with quantised potential and kinetic energies.
