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

8. Calculate the amount of time required to raise the temperature of 0.50 liter of water from 0.0 Celsius to 10.00 Celsius if he
Sever21 [200]
It takes about 4.186 joules to heat one gram of water by 1 deg Celsius. M
0.50 liters is 500 grams, and you want to hear that by 10C. So, multiply 4.186 by 500*10 the answer is about 4.186*500*10=20930 joules.
If you give 1100 joules per second, it will take 20930/1100=19.027 seconds to supply enough energy.

The tendency of an atom to pull electrons toward itself is referred to as its _____. ionic potential tonicity covalency electron
larisa86 [58]

Electronegativity

The tendency of an atom to pull electrons towards itself is called electronegativity.

It is the tendency of an atom to attract bonding pair of electrons towards itself. These atoms which are more electronegative are able to bear a negative charge and be stable.

Unlike electropositive elements which tend to lose electrons , electronegative elements hold on tightly to the electrons.

The electronegativity is measured using the Pauling Scale where the most electronegative element of the periodic table, Fluorine , is given a value of 4 and the rest of the elements have values lower than 4 according to the trends followed by their groups and periods.

The least electronegative element of the periodic table , Cesium has a value of 0.7 on the Pauling Scale.

Electronegativity increases when we move from left to right in the periodic table and it decreases (in general) when we move down the group.

An organic solvent has a density of 1.31 g/mL. What volume is occupied by 57.5 g of the liquid?
Burka [1]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 43.89 mL</h3>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density} \\

From the question

mass = 57.5 g

density = 1.31 g/mL

We have

volume =  \frac{57.5}{1.31}  \\  = 43.89312977...

We have the final answer as

<h3>43.89 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

gypsum is insoluble in water. you are asked to purify a sample of gypsum that is contaminated with a soluble salt.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

a. The apparatus required to purify gypsum sample are: Bunsen burner, beaker, Filter Funnel, stirring rod, the filter paper.

b. Gypsum is a sulfate mineral that is made up of calcium sulfate dihydrate. Step-by-step instruction to purify gypsum sample is as follows:

1. Add water to the gypsum sample in a beaker.

2. Use the stirring rod to mix the mixture well.

3. Filter off the excess solid from the mixture using the filter paper and filter funnel.

4. Put the filtered mixture over the bunsen burner and evaporate the excess water from the mixture.

5. Allow the hot liquid to cool down and filter it again through the filter paper to get the pure gypsum.

The average atomic mass of the imaginary element : 47.255 amu

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The elements in nature have several types of isotopes  

Isotopes are elements that have the same Atomic Number (Proton)  

Atomic mass is the average atomic mass of all its isotopes  

Mass atom X = mass isotope 1 . % + mass isotope 2.% ..

isotope E-47 47.011 amu, 87.34%

isotope E-48 48.008 amu, 6.895

isotope E-49 50.009 amu, 5.77%

The average atomic mass :

\tt avg~mass=0.8734\times 47.011+0.06895\times 48.008+0.0577\times 50.009\\\\avg~mass=41.059+3.310+2.886\\\\avg~mass=47.255~amu
