Covalent bonds are strong bonds. Atoms that share pairs of electrons form molecules. A molecule is a group of atoms held together by covalent bonds. A diatomic molecule is a molecule containing only two atoms.
Uranium emits particles and rays spontaneously through this process called radioactive decay or radioactivity.
Is the process by which the nucleus of an unstable atom loses energy by emitting radiation, including alpha particles, beta particles. gamma rays and conversion electrons.
329g Cl (You're welcome :D)
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
Rutherford deduced that the atomic nucleus was positively charged because the alpha particles that he fired at the metal foils were positively charged, and like charges repel. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons, so they are positively charged. In Rutherford's experiments most of the alpha particles passed straight through the foil without being deflected. However, occasionally the alpha particles were deflected in their paths, and rarely the alpha particles were deflected backward at a 180 degree angle.
Since like charges repel, Rutherford concluded that the cause of the deflections of the positively charged alpha particles had to be something within the atom that was also positively charged. Rutherford concluded from his metal foil experiments that most of an atom is empty space with a tiny, dense, positively charged nucleus at the center that contains most of the mass of the atom.
Answer:
Rusting is an oxidation reaction. The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form hydrated iron (III) oxide, which we see as rust. Here is the word equation for the reaction: iron + water + oxygen → hydrated iron (III) oxide
In this reaction, zinc atoms each will lose two electrons (oxidation) and become Zn 2+ ions. The two electrons that are released by zinc will be gained by the Cu 2+ ions (reduction). The Cu2+ ions become Cu atoms. Total equation: Zn (s) + CuSO 4 (aq) --> Cu (s) + ZnSO 4 (aq)
