Water
Water is a compound because it is made from more than one kind of element (oxygen and hydrogen).
<span>The answer to the question is the option C. it cannot be physically broken down into different types of atoms. This means that the material is an element, which is a pure substance. Because an element is a pure substance that is formed by one only type of atoms. For example, gold is an element and all its atoms are of the same type. That is also true for any of the 118 elements of the periodic table. Compounds (other kind of pure substances) can be broken down into molecules (which contain different kind of atoms, but always in the same proportion) and mixtures (non pure substances) have different kind of substances.</span>
Answer:
C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.
Explanation:
In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.
He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.
3.62x10^24/ 6.02x10^23= 6.013 moles to 3dp
<u>We are given:</u>
The force applied on the poor hamster (F) = 12 N
Acceleration of the poor Hamster (a) = 8 m/s²
<u>Solving for the mass of the Poor Hamster:</u>
From newton's second equation of motion, we know that:
F = ma
<em>replacing the given values</em>
12 = 8 * m
m = 12/8 kg
m = 3/2 kg
The poor Hamster weighs 3/2 kg
