What did Rutherford’s scattering experiment reveal about the structure of atoms?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This experiment by Rutherford involved the firing of alpha particles at gold foils. It is also. called the gold foil experiment.

He fired these alpha particles at different points. He noticed that at some points, there were deflections, while at some other points, there were no deflections. It is necessary to state that these alpha particles are positively charged. For there to be a deflection, there must have been a kind of repulsion between the gold foil and the alpha particles.

From the basic physics of like repels like, he knew for sure that there must be dense positive core in the atom that is causing the deflection of the alpha particles. This enabled him to come up with the theory that the atom contained a small dense positive core called the nucleus

The  properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

  • water's high specific heat capacity
  • the large mass of water
<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity is the property of a substance that shows how much its temperature changes when it is exposed to heat.

Thus, the  properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

  • water's high specific heat capacity
  • the large mass of water

Missing parts:

How many moles of calcium chloride (CaCl2) are needed to react completely with 6.2 moles of silver nitrate (AgNO3)? 2AgNO3 + CaC
nexus9112 [7]

Here we have to choose the right option which tells the moles of CaCl₂ will react with 6.2 moles of AgNO₃ in the reaction

2AgNO₃ + CaCl₂→ 2AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂

6.2 moles of silver nitrate (AgNO₃) will react with B. 3.1 moles of calcium chloride (CaCl₂).

From the reaction: 2AgNO₃ + CaCl₂→ 2AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂

Thus 2 moles of AgNO₃ reacts with 1 mole of CaCl₂

Henceforth, 6.2 moles of AgNO₃ reacts with \frac{6.2}{2} = 3.1 moles of CaCl₂.

1 mole of CaCl₂ reacts with 2 moles of AgNO₃. Thus-

A. 2.2 moles of CaCl₂ will react with 2.2×2 = 4.4 moles of AgNO₃.

C. 6.2 moles of CaCl₂ will reacts with 6.2×2 = 12.4 moles of AgNO₃.

D. 12.4 moles of CaCl₂ will reacts with 12.4 × 2 = 24.8 moles of AgNO₃

Thus the right answer is 6.2 moles of AgNO₃ will react with 3.1 moles of CaCl₂.

Why is it not wise to make your bungee cord the same height of the building you plan to bungee jump from?
DIA [1.3K]
Because you won’t have enough time to stop and bounce back up before you hit the ground since the cord is the same length as the building.
