In Rutherford's Gold foil experiment, were the alpha particles directed to different areas of the gold foil or only the same spo

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In the Rutherford experiment, alpha particles were directed at the same spot on a thin gold foil.

As the alpha particles hit the foil, most of the alpha particles went through the foil. In Rutherford's interpretation, most of the particles went through because the atom consisted largely of empty space.

However, some of the alpha particles were deflected through large angles, in Rutherford's interpretation, the deflected alpha particles had hit the dense positive core of the atom which he called the nucleus.

This accounted for their scattering through large angles throughout the foil in all directions.

What volume of lead (of density 11.3 g/cm3 ) has the same mass as 395 cm3 of a piece of redwood (of density 0.38 g/cm3 )? Answer
Zepler [3.9K]
d_{1}=\frac{m}{V_{1}}\\\\
V_{1}=395cm^{3}\\
d_{1}=0,38\frac{g}{cm^{3}} \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ \ \ m=395cm^{3}*0,38\frac{g}{cm^{3}}=150,1g\\\\\\
d_{2}=\frac{m}{V_{2}}\\\\
m=150,1g\\
d_{2}=11,3\frac{g}{cm^{3}} \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ \ \ V_{2}=\frac{150,1g}{11,3\frac{g}{cm^{3}}}\approx13,28cm^{3}

Enter the correct ground-state (or lowest energy) configuration based on the number of electrons: 1s^4 2s^4 2p^12.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

The ground state configuration is the lowest energy, most stable arrangement. An excited state configuration is a higher energy arrangement (it requires energy input to create an excited state). Valence electrons are the electrons utilised for bonding.

What is Keq for the reaction N₂ + 3H2 = 2NH3 if the equilibrium
hram777 [196]

The Keq for the reaction N₂ + 3H2 = 2NH3 if the equilibrium concentrations are Keq = 1.5. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is Keq?</h3>

Keq is the ratio of the concentration of reactant to the concentration of the product.

The balanced equation is

N₂ + 3H₂  = 2NH₃

The equilibrium constant is \rm \dfrac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2]\; [H_2]^3}

The given concentrations of the compounds have been:

Ammonia = 3 M

Nitrogen = 1 M

Hydrogen = 2 M

\rm \dfrac{9}{1\times 8} = 1.5

Thus, the correct option is D. Keq = 1.5.

(Please help!)
Inessa [10]

Answer:

B. temperature decreases as altitude increases.

Explanation:

Just like in the lower reaches of the atmosphere, the troposphere, in the mesosphere, temperature decreases as altitude increases.

The mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere just above the stratosphere.

  • It begins at the top of the stratosphere and ends at the mesopause where the thermosphere begins.
  • The mesosphere is often referred to as the middle layer.

With increasing height, the temperature of the mesosphere decreases significantly. The top of the mesosphere is one of the coldest part of the earth atmosphere. This is as a result of increasing atmospheric cooling by carbon dioxide in this region of the atmosphere.
