Originally scientists believed in the plum pudding model of the atom (sphere of positive charge surrounded by smaller spheres of negative charge) then Rutherford did his scattering experiment (he shot alpha particles at a piece of gold foil some particles passed straight through the empty space of the atom, some were slightly deflected as they were closer to the atom's nucleus and some were completely reflected because they were headed in the path of the atom's nucleus

Answer:

Number of moles of Fe = 10 mol

Number of moles of CO₂ = 15 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of iron oxide = 5 mol

Number of moles of carbon monoxide = 25 mol

Number of moles of product = ?

Solution:

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO   →  2Fe + 3CO₂

Now we will compare the moles of reactant with product.

                  Fe₂O₃        :         Fe

                     1             :          2

                    5             :         2×5 = 10 mol

                Fe₂O₃        :         CO₂

                     1             :          3

                    5             :         3×5 = 15 mol

                  CO           :         Fe

                     3             :          2

                    25             :         2/3×25 = 16.7 mol

                  CO            :         CO₂

                     3             :          3

                    25             :         25

Less number of moles of Fe and CO₂ are formed by iron oxide thus it will act as limiting reactant while CO is inn excess.

Sodium metal and water react to create sodium hydrogen and hydrogen gas through the unbalanced equation.
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Theoretical yield = 2.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium = 79.7 g

Mass of water = 45.3 g

Theoretical yield of hydrogen gas = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

Number of moles of sodium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 79.7 g / 23 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.5 mol

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 45.3 g / 18g/mol

Number of moles = 2.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen gas with water and sodium.

                        H₂O           :             H₂

                           2             :              1

                          2.5           :            1/2×2.5 =1.25 mol

                     

                           Na           :              H₂

                             2            :               1

                           3.5           :             1/2×3.5 =1.75 mol

water will be limiting reactant.

Theoretical yield:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  1.25 mol  × 2 g/mol

Mass = 2.5 g

Temperate deciduous trees lose their leaves in Fall. Explain why trees in temperate rainforest and tropical rainforest don’t los
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

So trees in temperate don't lose their leaves because the weather events aren't harsh enough.

Trees in tropical rainforest don't lose their leaves because they are a different type of tree known as evergreens that are green all year round.

Explanation:

Ok so first we'll define some things

Deciduous Trees=  Trees that lose all of their leaves for part of the year.

Trees shed their leaves trees to try and survive harsh weather events.

Temperate deciduous trees lose their leaves in fall to better survive the winter conditions of extreme cold and reduced daylight.

Temperate rainforests = An area that doesn't experience extremely cold or extremely hot temperatures or what we would call harsh weather events.

Broad-leaved trees in tropical rainforests are known evergreen, they are known as this as they are green all year round.
