Answer:

True

Explanation:

The oil drop experiment was carried out by Robert Millikan and Harvey Fletcher in 1909 to determine the charge of an electron. By balancing downward gravitation force with upward drag and electric force, they suspended small charged droplets of oil between two metal electrodes.

The charge over an oil droplet was often an integral value of e, was determined by changing the intensity of the electric field.

So, the given statement is true

NH₄NO₃ → N₂O + 2H₂O When 45.70 g of NH₄NO₃ decomposes, what mass of each product is formed?
Anna007 [38]

Answer: 25.13 g of N_2O  and 20.56 g of H_2O will be produced from 45.70 g of NH_4NO_3

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} NH_4NO_3=\frac{45.70g}{80.04g/mol}=0.571moles

The balanced chemical equation is:

NH_4NO_3\rightarrow N_2O+2H_2O  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of NH_4NO_3 produce = 1 mole of N_2O

Thus 0.571 moles of NH_4NO_3 will require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.571=0.571moles  of N_2O  

Mass of N_2O=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.571moles\times 44.01g/mol=25.13g

1 mole of NH_4NO_3 produce = 2 moles of H_2O

Thus 0.571 moles of NH_4NO_3 will require=\frac{2}{1}\times 0.571=1.142moles  of H_2O  

Mass of H_2O=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=1.142moles\times 18g/mol=20.56g

Thus 25.13 g of N_2O  and 20.56 g of H_2O will be produced from 45.70 g of NH_4NO_3

How much heat is absorbed during production of 136 g of NO by the combination of nitrogen and oxygen?
MaRussiya [10]
100.3kcal of heat will be absorbed. 2moles of NO absorb 43kcal. I mole of NO weighs 14 +16 = 30g so 2 moles weigh 60g. So 60g absorb 43kcal So 1g absorb 43/60 kcal So 136g absorb (43/60) x 136 = 97.47 kcal

How many moles of solute are contained in a 250.0-milliliter solution that has a concentration of 0.85 M?
adoni [48]

Answer : The correct option is, 0.21 moles

Solution : Given,

Molarity of the solution = 0.85 M = 0.85 mole/L

Volume of solution = 250 ml = 0.25 L     (1L=1000ml)

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of the solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in liters}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the moles of solute of the solution.

0.85mole/L=\frac{\text{moles of solute}}{0.25L}

\text{moles of solute}=0.2125=0.21moles

Therefore, the moles of solute is, 0.21 moles
