What did Ernest Rutherford’s gold foil experiment demonstrate about atoms? Their positive charge is located in a small region th

at is called the nucleus. Their negative charge is located in small particles that are called electrons. Their nucleus makes up the majority of the volume of the atom. Their electrons are floating in a sea of positive charges.

Their positive charge is located in a small region that is called the nucleus.

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford in his gold foil experiment was able to demonstrate that the nucleus is made up of positive charges which occupies a small and tiny nucleus.

Rutherford bombarded a thin gold foil with alpha particles from a radioactive source.

  1. He observed that all the particles passed through but a small portion was deflected back.
  2. This led to his proposition of the nuclear model the atom.

When 16.3 g of magnesium and 4.52 g of oxygen gas react, how many grams of magnesium oxide will be formed? Identify the limiting
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

22.77 g.

he limiting reactant is O₂, and the excess reactant is Mg.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced reaction:

<em>Mg + 1/2O₂ → MgO,</em>

1.0 mole of Mg reacts with 0.5 mole of oxygen to produce 1.0 mole of MgO.

  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of (16.3 g) of Mg and (4.52 g) of oxygen:

no. of moles of Mg = mass/molar mass = (16.3 g)/(24.3 g/mol) = 0.6708 mol.

no. of moles of O₂ = mass/molar mass = (4.52 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 0.2825 mol.

So. 0.565 mol of Mg reacts completely with (0.2825 mol) of O₂.

<em>∴ The limiting reactant is O₂, and the excess reactant is Mg (0.6708 - 0.565 = 0.1058 mol).</em>

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mole of Mg produce → 1.0 mol of MgO.

∴ 0.565 mol of Mg produce → <em>0.565 mol of MgO.</em>

<em>∴ The amount of MgO produced = no. of moles x molar mass </em>= (0.565 mol)(40.3 g/mol) = <em>22.77 g.</em>

What property of liquid oxygen makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home?
irga5000 [103]
The property of liquid oxygen that makes it especially difficult and potentially harmful to work with at home would be its cryogenic temperature. Liquid oxygen is being produced from the compression of oxygen gas to -196 degrees Celsius. As you can see, it has a very cold temperature that is why it used in cryogenics. Although liquid oxygen is non-toxic to humans, it would cause burns that are severe when being touched. Also, it would make certain materials brittle and unstable. Another property that makes it dangerous for use at home would be that it is very flammable. Proper handling is a must for this substance.

If NaOH is added to 0.010 M Al3+, which will be the predominant species at equilibrium: Al(OH)3 or Al(OH)- 4 ? The pH of the sol
fredd [130]

Answer:

Al(OH)- 4,

Explanation:

NaOH  added to 0.010 M Al3+

The predominant species at equilibrium will be = Al(OH)- 4,  and this because sodium hydroxide ( NaOH ) is a base will readily form a stable complex ion with aluminum ion like ( Al( OH ) - 4 . also the higher the Kf value the more stable the complex ion becomes and the more soluble  Al(OH)3 becomes

hence the predominant species at equilibrium is : Al(OH)- 4,
