Answer:
weak bonds break and strong bonds form
Explanation:
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which heat energy is evolved during the reaction process.
Bond formation requires energy while bond breakage releases energy. More energy is needed for the formation of weak bonds as compared to strong bonds.
<em>Hence, when weak bonds break, they release more energy than needed to make a corresponding strong bond leading to the release of the remaining energy as heat.</em>
In order to conduct the two-slit experiment with a beam of electrons, the slit opening has to be smaller than the opening for the light waves. This is because the wavelength of the electron beam is lower, which means it will pass through the large slit without diffracting. Diffraction will occur if the spacing is reduced. The reason that electrons have a smaller wavelength is because they have a higher energy than light waves.
Answer: The molecular formula will be
Explanation:
If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.
So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.
Mass of C = 40.0 g
Mass of O = 53.3 g
Mass of H = 6.66 g
Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.
Moles of C =
Moles of O =
Moles of H =
Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.
For C =
For O =
For H =
The ratio of C : O : H = 1: 1: 2
Hence the empirical formula is
The empirical weight of = 1(12)+1(16)+2(1)= 30g.
The molecular weight = 60 g/mole
Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.
The molecular formula will be=
Answer:
A). An atom is an indivisible hard-sphere.
Explanation:
The 'Atomic Theory' of Dalton is characterized as the earliest model(came in 1803) which described the atoms as the indivisible and resistant spheres. He <u>used the example of watermelon to elaborate that the atoms of a specific element share similar characteristics</u> and the atoms of distinct elements differ in their mass as well as their size. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
