Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As we know that density the amount of mass present in per unit volume.

Mathematically,      Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

So, it means that density is inversely proportional to volume. Hence, when there will be decrease in density of a substance then there will be increase in its volume. That is, expansion of substance will take place.

Also, boiling point of copper is 2,562 degree celsius but we are heating it up to a temperature of 95 degree celsius. This means that copper will remain in liquid state at this temperature.

Thus, we can conclude that a change which occurs in a sample of copper is that copper sample will expand.

5. A beam of photons with a minimum energy of 222 kJ/mol can eject electrons from a potassium surface. Estimate the range of wav
torisob [31]

Answer: The range of wavelengths of light that can be used to cause given phenomenon is 8.953 \times 10^{21} m.

Explanation:

Given: 222 kJ/mol (1 kJ = 1000 J) = 222000 J

Formula used is as follows.

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy

h = Planck's constant = 6.625 \times 10^{-25} Js

c = speed of light = 3 \times 10^{8} m/s

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\222000 J = \frac{6.625  \times 10^{-34}Js \times 3 \times 10^{8} m/s}{\lambda}\\\lambda = 8.953 \times 10^{21} m

Thus, we can conclude that the range of wavelengths of light that can be used to cause given phenomenon is 8.953 \times 10^{21} m.

Rutherford’s gold foil experiment gave evidence that an atom is mostly empty space. true false
Sholpan [36]

The given statement is true .

<h3>What is Rutherford’s gold foil  experiment?</h3>
  • A piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a favorable charge. Most alpha particles went right around. This showed that the gold particles were mostly space.
  • The Rutherford gold leaf investigation supposed that most (99%) of all the mass of an atom is in the middle of the atom, that the nucleus is very small (105 times small than the length of the atom) and that is positively captured.
  • For the distribution experiment, Rutherford enjoyed a metal sheet that could be as thin as practicable. Gold is the most malleable of all known metals. It can easily be converted into very thin sheets. Hence, Rutherford established a gold foil for his alpha-ray scattering experimentation.
