How does the current model of the atom differ from j.j. thomsons model

1 answer:

8 0

Thomson's model of the atom was called the plum pudding model. He discovered electrons, so he placed them in the atoms. This was before the nucleus was discovered.

Now, the current model is an atom that contains a positively charged nucleus (with both protons and neutrons), and negatively charged orbitals with electrons.

What was one main point of daltons atomic theory

bagirrra123 [75]

The main points of Dalton's atomic theory are: Everything is composed of atoms, which are the indivisible building blocks of matter and cannot be destroyed. All atoms of an element are identical. The atoms of different elements vary in size and mass.

Identify which of the following two reactions you would expect to occur more rapidly: (1) addition of HBr to 2-methyl-2-pentene

arlik [135]

Answer:

(1) addition of HBr to 2-methyl-2-pentene

Explanation:

In this case, we will have the formation of a carbocation for each molecule. For molecule 1 we will have a tertiary carbocation and for molecule 2 we will have a secondary carbocation.

Therefore the most stable carbocation is the one produced by the 2-methyl-2-pentene. So, this molecule would react faster than 4-methyl-1-pentene. (See figure)

Which experimental setup would let a student investigate the connection between kinetic energy and temperature? (1 point) placin

Maslowich

Answer:

The correct option is;

Placing one drop of food coloring in a cup with 60 ml of water at 10°, placing one drop of food coloring in a second cup with 60 ml of water at 40°C

Explanation:

The experimental setup that would allow the student investigate the connection between kinetic energy and temperature should be made up of the following characteristics

1) The constant terms for the experiment should be defined, which in this case are

a) The volume of the water which is 60 ml in both subjects of the experiment

2) The definition of the variable that produces the effect that is being monitored, which is the use of the different temperatures in the two experimental subjects

3)The environmental limits of the experiment, which is the water and the food coloring used
