Which of the following ideas about the atom changed when new evidence was discovered?

Chemistry
1 answer:
poizon [28]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Atoms cannot be divided.

Explanation:

Earlier the following points were proposed for an atom that:

A. Elements are different kinds of atoms. : For example atom of oxygen will be different from atom of carbon.

B. All matter is made up of atoms: it is also true that whatever matter we observe is made up of some atom. Either it is a mixture or pure substance.

C. Atoms cannot be divided: This is not true. Further scientific studies showed that an atom can further be divided into sub atomic particles electrons, neutrons and protons. Thus the idea of indivisibility of an atom changed when new evidence was discovered.

D. Atoms are made up of smaller particles: It is true as atoms are made up of sub atomic particles.

Match each part of the electrochemical cell with its function.

Hi!


The correct options would be:

1. Cathode - <em>reduction</em>

The cathode is the negatively charged electrode, and so has an excess of electrons. Cations (positively charged ions) are attracted to the cathode, and gain electrons to acquire a neutral charge. The process in which a gain of electron occurs is called reduction.


2. Anode - <em>oxidation</em>

The opposite occurs at the anode which is positively charged and attracts negatively charged ions, anions. These anions lose their electrons at the anode to acquire a neutral charge, and the process involving loss of electrons is known as oxidation.


3. Salt Bridge - <em>ion transport </em>

Salt bridge is a physical connection between the the anodic and cathodic half cells in an electrochemical cell and is a pathway that facilitates the flow of ions back and forth these half cells. Salt bridge is involved in maintaining a neutral condition in the electrochemical cells, and its absence would result in the accumulation of positive charge in the anodic cell, and negative charge in the cathodic cell.


4. Wire - <em>electron transport </em>

Wires have a universal role of being a pathway for the transport of electrons in circuit. This role is also the same in the wires involved in an electrochemical cells where they are used to transport electrons from the anodic half cell, and this electron transport results in the generation of electricity in the internal circuit of the electrochemical cell.


Hope this helps!

Select ALL correct answers. The contact force is caused by: A. Atoms randomly crashing into each other B. The charged particles
Inessa [10]

Answer:

A. Atoms randomly crashing into each other

E. The force of one object pushing against the force of another object.

Explanation:

Forces can be classified into two categories based upon the the mode of transfer or application:

1. Contact forces

2. Non-contact forces

Contact forces are the ones which require the physical contact of the matter to get transferred and tend to create the affect. Whereas non-contact forces have the field property which transfers the affect of force from one point to another without any physical contact of the matter or the medium.

  • Atoms crashing onto each other have some mass and velocity which upon collision impacts the other atoms exerts a contact force.
  • The interaction between the charged particles due to their charges is always due to the electric field be it electron or proton, be it within an atom or out of an atom.
  • The force between any two objects pushing or pulling each other is also possible only due to contact.

Through an uplift under the earth crust at a dirvergent boundary a _____ is formed.
postnew [5]

<span>Out of the  following given choices;</span>

<span>a. cliff               b. fault </span>

<span>c. plateau          d. mountain</span>

<span>The answer is b.  A divergent boundary is a line at which two tectonic plates are moving away from each other. It is caused by the two magma convection currents in the mantle moving in opposing directions (one clockwise, the other anti-clockwise) hence dragging the crust with them. Therefore the biggest force at the boundary on the crust is that of pulling. This causes <span>fractures and faults on the earth’s crust.</span></span>

Why would defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints, as <u>collagen is an important component protein in body</u><u> connective tissues</u>

Explanation:

Collagen is a crucial protein in the extracellular matrix of various connective tissues in body (tendons, ligaments, muscles). It constitutes major protein component in mammals body.

Collagen Vascular disease is a group of diseases affecting 'collagen' connecting tissue. Apart from inheritance, they can con occur due to autoimmune disease. This implies that body's immune system fights against itself & mistakenly damages its own tissues. So, these diseases have a huge bearing on body joints components. Eg : Lupus , Arthritis are common collagen vascular diseases. Arthritis mostly affects adults above 30 years of age, lupus can be diagnosed in younger people above 15 years of age also.
