What did Rutherford's gold foil experiment tell about the atom?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
VLD [36.1K]2 years ago
3 0

The alpha particles that were fired at the gold foil were positively charged. ... These experiments led Rutherford to describe the atom as containing mostly empty space, with a very small, dense, positively charged nucleus at the center, which contained most of the mass of the atom, with the electrons orbiting the nucleus.

hope this helped

A liquid has a density of 1.17 g/cm3, how many liters of the liquid have a mass of 3.75 kg
Luda [366]
<span>There are 1000 cm3 in 1 liters. Hence 1 liter of the liquid would weigh: 1000 cm3 x (1.17 g/cm3) = 1170 gm and there are 1000 gm in 1 kg, so we want enough liters to have a mass of 3.75 kg x 1000 gm/kg = 3750 gm Hence, # of liters = desired mass / # of gm per liter = 3750 gm / 1170 gm/liter = 3.2051282 liters</span>

A 50.0 mL sample of 12.0 M HCl is diluted to 200 mL. What is true about the diluted solution?
kobusy [5.1K]

The concentration of the solution reduces and the number of moles of solute isn't affected.

Data;

  • V1 = 50mL
  • C1 = 12.0M
  • V2 = 200mL
  • C2 = ?
<h3>Facts about the diluted solution</h3>

1. When the solution is diluted, the concentration changes and this time, the concentration reduces.

Using dilution formula

c_1 v_1 = c_2 v_2\\12 * 50 = c_2 * 200\\c_2 = \frac{600}{200} \\c_2 = 3M

The concentration of the solution reduces.

2. The number of moles remains the same.

When a solution is diluted, the number of moles remains the same because there's no change in the mass of the solute.

The Ksp can be used to find the concentration of hydroxide ions, and thus determine the pH given a concentration of of aluminum.
Anton [14]

Answer:

3.9.

Explanation:

(Molar mass of 342.15 g/mol).

The first thing to do in this question is to coverts our units. We are given 6.70 lb = 453.592 × 6.70 lb = 3039.0664 g of aluminum sulfate.

2050 gallons of water = 2050 × 3.785 = 7759.25 Litres.

After this we will now look for the Concentration aluminum sulfate using the formula below:

Concentration = number of moles ÷ volume. ------------------------------------(1).

Recall; Number of moles = 3039.0664/ 342.15 = 8.8823 moles. The volume = 2050 gallons = 7759.25 Litres.

Therefore, slotting in the values of of number of moles and volume into the equation (1) above, we have;

Concentration= 8.8823 moles/ 7759.25 Litres. = 0.001145 M.

The next equation we are going to make use of today is that of the solubilty product that is;

Ksp = (Al^3+) (OH^-)^3.

So, we have the ksp = 1.3 × 10^-33 and the value of (Al^3+)= 0.001145 M.

Hence, making (OH^-) the subject of the formula;

(OH^-) = ( 1.3 × 10^-33 / 0.001145)^1/3.

(OH^-) = 8 × 10^-11 M.

Hence, pOH = - log (OH^-)

pOH = - log (8 × 10^-11).

pOH = 10.1

Therefore, the values of pH is; 1

pH + pOH = 14.

pH = 14 - 10.1 = 3.9.

Explain what a scientific theory is, and what is necessary to make a theory strong and well supported?
Anna35 [415]

in order for a scientific theory to become a scientific law it needs to be tested with generations of data to confirm that it is really true.
