Answer:

B. Less than 1% of the alpha particles were deflected by angles greater than 90°.

Explanation:

In Rutherford’s gold foil experiment most of the alpha particles pass undeflected which proved that most of the atom is empty. Less than 1% of the alpha particles were deflected by angles greater than 90°. This proved that the entire mass of the atom is confined to a small space which is highly dense.

The half life of 226/88 Ra is 1620 years. How much of a 12 g sample of 226/88 Ra will be left after 8 half lives?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.0468 g.

Explanation:

  • The decay of radioactive elements obeys first-order kinetics.
  • For a first-order reaction: k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(t1/2).

Where, k is the rate constant of the reaction.

t1/2 is the half-life time of the reaction (t1/2 = 1620 years).

∴ k = ln2/(t1/2) = 0.693/(1620 years) = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹.

  • For first-order reaction: <em>kt = lna/(a-x).</em>

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction (k = 4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹).

t is the time of the reaction (t = t1/2 x 8 = 1620 years x 8 = 12960 year).

a is the initial concentration (a = 12.0 g).

(a-x) is the remaining concentration.

∴ kt = lna/(a-x)

(4.28 x 10⁻⁴ year⁻¹)(12960 year) = ln(12)/(a-x).

5.54688 = ln(12)/(a-x).

Taking e for the both sides:

256.34 = (12)/(a-x).

<em>∴ (a-x) = 12/256.34 = 0.0468 g.</em>

Use LeChâtelier's principle explain why the concentration of NO at equilibrium increases when the reacuon takes place at higher
Tatiana [17]

increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium in the direction of the reaction in which heat is absorbed.

Explanation:

The concentration of NO at equilibrium will increase when the reaction takes place at a higher temperature because increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium in the direction of the reaction in which heat is absorbed.

The reaction is an endothermic reaction.

                            N₂  + O₂  + heat  ⇄  2NO

According to Le Chatelier's principle, "if any of the conditions of a system in equilibrium is changed the system will adjust itself in order to annul the effect of the change".

  • In an endothermic reaction, heat is usually absorbed.
  • We see that in the backward reaction, heat is absorbed.
  • If the temperature of this reaction is increased, the backward reaction is favored more.
  • Since the reactants are combining better, more products NO results.
