Answer:the initial composition of the reactants is

40cm^3 of CH4

40cm^3of H2

100cm^3 of H2O

Explanation:

Balanced reaction is

CH4 +H2+5/2O2______

CO2 +3H2O

Excess KOH at room temperature absorbs CO2 whose volume is given by 40cm^3 i.e the volume by which the solution decreases

So using Gay lussac combining ratio which states that gases combine in volumes that are in simple ratio to each other if gases.

Since CO2 in the equation is 1 mole

Means 1mole represent 40cm^3

So CH4:H2:O2 are in ratio of 1:1:5/2=(40:40:100)cm^3 respectively.

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.

What is the ph of a 4.8 m pyridine solution that has kb = 1.9 × 10-9? the equation for the dissociation of pyridine is?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer: 9.98


Explanation:


1) The equation for the dissociation of pyridine is:


C₅H₅N₅(aq )+ H₂O(l) ⇄ C₅H₅NH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)


2) Kb equation:


Kb = [C₅H₅NH⁺(aq)] [OH⁻(aq)] / [C₅H₅N₅(aq )]


Where:


[C₅H₅NH⁺(aq)] = [OH⁻(aq)] ← from the equilibrium reaction


[C₅H₅N₅(aq )] = 4.8 M ← from the statement


⇒ 1.9 × 10 ⁻⁹ = x² / 4.8 ⇒ x² = 9.12 × 10⁻⁹


⇒ x = 9.55 × 10⁻⁵ = [OH⁻(aq)]


3) pOH


pOH = - log [OH⁻(aq)] = 4.02


4) pOH + pH = 14


⇒ pH = 14 - 4.02 = 9.98
