Answer:

Law of conservation of mass

Ernest Rutherford

Explanation:

The basic law of behavior of matter that states that "mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction or physical change".

This is the law of conservation of mass. It is very essential in understanding most chemical reaction. Also, in quantitative analysis, this law is pivotal.

Ernest Rutherford was the scientist that stated that the nucleus is made up of positive charge. It was not until James Chadwick in 1932 discovered the neutron that we had an understanding of this nuclear component.

Rutherford surmised from his experiment that because most the alpha particles passed through the thin Gold foil and just a tiny fraction was deflected back, the atom is made is made up of small nucleus that is positively charged.

T or F: Lone pairs around the oxygen atom of a water molecule play no role in determining its molecular geometry?
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

They play a very important part. The geometry is not a straight line. It is an angle over 90 which means that the molecule has the same general shape as a boomerang. The two hydrogens and the 2 lone electron pairs try to get away as far as possible from each other. The actual shape results in a tetrahedron shape. But the two hydrogens and 1 oxygen actually look like the aforementioned boomerang.

What makes a glass different from a solid such as quartz? Under what conditions could quartz be converted into glass?
UNO [17]

Answer: arrangement of constituent particles makes glass diff. from quartz. Glass-short range order of particles.
Quartz-Long range of particles.

If quartz is heated and cooled rapidly it can be converted to glass.

54.0 g Al reacts with 64.0 g O2 to
Stells [14]

Answer:

102 g Al₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the mass of Al₂O₃, you need to (1) convert grams Al to moles Al (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles Al to moles Al₂O₃ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles Al₂O₃ to grams Al₂O₃ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given values.

Molar Mass (Al): 26.98 g/mol

Molar Mass (Al₂O₃): 101.96 g/mol

4 Al + 3 O₂ ---> 2 Al₂O₃

54.0 g Al          1 mole             2 moles Al₂O₃         101.96 g
--------------  x  -----------------  x  -----------------------  x  ----------------  =  102 g Al₂O₃
                        26.98 g               4 moles Al            1 mole
