Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

Rutherford gave an experiment known as gold foil experiment.

In his experiment, he took a gold foil and bombarded it with alpha particles (carrying positive charge). He thought that the particles will pass straight through the foil, but to his surprise, many of them passed through, some of them deflected their path and a few of them bounced back.

From this he concluded that in an atom, there exist a small positive charge in the center. Due to this positive charge, the alpha particles deflected their path and some of them bounced straight back their path.

Rutherford in his model of an atom proposed that in an atom positive charge is concentrated in the center of an atom.
The center where positive charge is located was termed as nucleus by him.

How much energy is required to vaporize 48.7 g of dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) at its boiling point, if its ΔHvap is 31.6 kJ/mol?

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The answer is 18.12KJ is required to vaporise 48.7 g of dichloromethane at its boiling point

Explanation:

To solve the above question we have the given variable as follows

ΔHvap = heat of vaporisation of dichloromethane per mole = 31.6KJ/mole

However since the heat of vaporisation is the heat to vaporise one mole of dichloromethane, then, for 48.7 grams of dichloromethane, we have.

The number of moles of dichloromethane present = 48.7/84.93 = 0.573 moles

Therefore, the amount of heat required to vaporise 48.7 grams of dichloromethane at its boiling point is 31.6KJ/mole×0.573moles =18.12KJ

The vapor pressure of pure water at 296 K is 2778.5 Pa. The vapor forms an ideal gas. 1) In some oil, the equilibrium concentrat

Murljashka [212]

Explanation:

It is given that vapor pressure of pure water at 296 K is 2778.5 Pa.These vapors will result in the formation of an ideal gas.

Now, as water is covered with oil and contains only 1% molecules of water. Hence, the vapor pressure of this mixture will also be equal to the vapor pressure of pure water.

So, vapor pressure of mixture = 1% vapor pressure of pure water

Therefore, $\text{(Vapor pressure)}_{mixture}$ = $\frac{1}{100} \times 2778.5 Pa$

= 27.785 Pa

Thus, we can conclude that the equilibrium vapor pressure of water above the oil layer is 27.785 Pa.
