To gravimetrically analyze the silver content of a piece of jewelry made from an alloy of Ag and Cu, a student dissolves a small
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Adding a solution containing an anion that forms an insoluble salt with only one of the metal ions.

Explanation:

The student have in solution Ag⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions but he just want to analyze the silver, that means he need to separate ions.

Centrifuging the solution to isolate the heavier ions <em>FALSE </em>Centrifugation allows the separation of a suspension but Ag⁺ and Cu²⁺ are both soluble in water.

Adding enough base solution to bring the pH up to 7.0 <em>FALSE </em>At pH = 7,0 these ions are soluble in water and its separation will not be possible.

Adding a solution containing an anion that forms an insoluble salt with only one of the metal ions <em>TRUE </em>For example, the addition of Cl⁻ will precipitate the Ag⁺ as AgCl(s) allowing its separation.

Evaporating the solution to recover the dissolved nitrates. <em>FALSE</em> . Thus, you will obtain the nitrates of these ions but will be mixed doing impossible its separation.

I hope it helps!

The question is incomplete; the complete question is;

In the early 1900s many scientists thought that an atom consisted of a positive substance with negative charges scattered throughout the substance. Then Ernest Rutherford completed an experiment that changed the concept of an atom. His discovery led to the understanding that an atom consists mostly of empty with space with-

Protons orbiting a dense nucleus made of electrons and neutrons

Electrons orbiting a dense nucleus made of protons and neutrons

Neutrons and protons orbiting a cloud of electrons

Electrons and protons orbiting a cloud of neutrons

Answer:

Electrons orbiting a dense nucleus made of protons and neutrons

Explanation:

Rutherford established the nuclear theory of the atom by his famous experiment. In his experiment, alpha particles were used to bombard a thin gold foil and the movement of the particles was observed on a moveable zinc sulphide screen.

It was discovered from the experiment that the atom was mostly made up of empty space. The electrons orbit a dense nucleus comprising of protons and neutrons.
