Answer:

A tin atom and 2 molecules containing two hydrogen atoms bonded to one oxygen atom.

Explanation:

Equation of reaction:

SnO2 + 2H2 ---> Sn + 2H2O

According to Dalton's postulates:

1. All elements are made up of small indivisible particles called atoms

2. The atom cannot be created nor destroyed

3. The atoms of the same element are alike in every aspect and differ from atoms of all other elements

4. During a chemical reaction there is a combination of atoms in small whole numbers.

From the given options, the one that satisfies the postulates of Dalton is:

"A tin atom and 2 molecules containing two hydrogen atoms bonded to one oxygen atom"

This is because it gives a balanced chemical equation for the number of atoms reacting for each element is equal to the number of atoms of each element produced. This is in accordance with the postulate that atoms are neither created nor destroyed.

The three other postulates are also obeyed. The small whole number ratio for the reactants and products in the chemical reaction is 1 : 2 : 2.

Explain why the atomic radius of aluminium is smaller than that of sodium.
garik1379 [7]
Okay, to explain this you might have to grab a periodic table.

Do you have one? Good. Look at the most left side of the periodic table. The first group is the largest atoms in the periodic table. If you go to the right of the periodic table, the atoms get progressively smaller and smaller.

Why is this? Don't atoms get more electrons, and so become significantly bigger as they move to the right?

Although atoms do get more electrons as they go to the right, they also get more protons too. Protons pull on electrons and make atoms smaller. Because of this, going from left to right in a periodic table makes the atoms smaller and smaller, since more and more protons are added.

In this scenario, Aluminum is more to the right than Sodium, which means that it has more protons. Because of this, the protons in Aluminum pull more strongly on electrons than sodium, thus making aluminum smaller.

(Just a side note, going down in a periodic table makes the atoms bigger, since new shells are added every time)

Good luck! If you need any help, just ask :))

A gas in a balloon at constant pressure has a volume of 185 mL at -125*C. What is its volume at 31.0*C? Show all work including
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

380 mL is the new volume

Explanation:

At constant pressure.

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂

Temperature must be in Absolute Values (T°K = T°C + 273)

-125°C + 273 = 148 K

31°C + 273 = 304 K

185 mL / 148 K = V₂ / 304 K

V₂ = (185 mL / 148 K) . 304 K → 380 mL
