One of the claims of John Dalton's atomic theory is that atom is the smallest unit of matter (which suggests that there are no particles smaller than an atom in any matter). This claim has been disproved by the modern atomic theory which established that there are particles smaller than atom (called subatomic particles). These particles are electrons, protons and neutrons.

One of the modern atomic theory was by Neils Bohr, who proposed that electrons move in circular orbits around the central nucleus. Thus, the electrons of iron can also be said to be present in a region of space (circular path) around the nucleus. This proves that option B is the correct option as John Dalton's theory did not even recognize the electron(s) nor the nucleus.

What volume of 3.00 M HCl will form a solution with an acidic pH when mixed with 100 mL of 3.00 M NaOH

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: The volume of acid should be less than 100 mL for a solution to have acidic pH

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of acid needed to neutralize, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=3.00M\\V_1=?mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=3.00M\\V_2=100mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1\times 3.00\times V_1=1\times 3.00\times 100\\\\V_1=\frac{1\times 3.00\times 100}{1\times 3.00}=100mL$

For a solution to be acidic in nature, the pH should be less than the volume of acid needed to neutralize.

Hence, the volume of acid should be less than 100 mL for a solution to have acidic pH
