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.

A weather balloon is filled with helium that occupies a volume of 5.00 × 10^4 L at 0.995 atm and 32.0°C. After it is released, i
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The new volume is 5.913*10^4 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write out the formula to be used:

Using general gas equation;

P1V1 / T1 =P2V2 /T2

V2 = P1V1T2 / P2T1

Step 2: write out the values given and convert to standard unit's where necessary

P1 = 0.995atm

P2 0.720atm

V1 = 5*10^4 L

T1 = 32°C = 32+ 273 = 305K

T2 = -12°C = -12 + 273 = 261K

Step 3: Equate your values and do the calculation:

V2 = 0.995 * 5*10^4 * 261 / 0.720 * 305

V2 = 1298.475 * 10^4 / 219.6

V2 = 5.913 * 10^4 L

So the new volume of the balloon is 5.913*10^4 L

Use the unbalanced equation NH3+O2=NO+H2O to find the mole ratio between NO and H2O
Leona [35]

Answer:

For every 4 moles of NO created, 6 moles of H2O are created so the ratio is 4:6

Explanation:

You just need to balance the equation.

NH3 + O2 -> NO + H2O

1. I started with hydrogen; there's 3 on the left and 2 on the right. Multiply them together to find a number they both go into (3×2=6, but in this case 6 hydrogen on each side does not work so I doubled it so there is 12 hydrogen on each side).

This will bring you to this:

4NH3 + O2 -> NO + 6H2O

2. Now get equal amounts of nitrogen on each side. There's 4 nitrogen on the left side, and 1 on the right. Multiply the right by 4. Then you will have this:

4NH3 + O2 -> 4NO + 6H2O

3. Last thing you need to do is have the same amount of oxygen on both sides. On the left you have 2 and on the right you have 10. Get the left to 10 by multiplying it by 5.

Balanced: 4NH3 + 5O2 -> 4NO + 6H2O

In word form, for every reaction between 4 moles of ammonia and 5 moles of oxygen, 4 moles of nitric oxide and 6 moles of water will be created.

I hope this helps!

Enter the chemical formula of a binary molecular compound of hydrogen and a Group 6A element that can reasonably be expected to
NARA [144]

Answer:

Any binary molecular compound of hydrogen and a Group 6A element above Selenium will be less acidic, so water and dihydrogen sulfide are less acidic in aqueous solution than hydrogen selenide.

Explanation:

Going down in a group increases the atomic radius and a greater atomic radius implyes greater ionic radius.  

When ionization takes place in these compounds they yelds protons (hidrogen ion) and an lewis base (anion). The greater the ionic radius the greater its stability, thus the periodic tendency is increaing the acidity of binary hidrogen compounds when going down a group. On the other hand going up a group decreases acidity, so any molecular compound of hydrogen and a Group 6A element above Selenium will be less acidic, so water and dihydrogen sulfide are less acidic in aqueous solution than hydrogen selenide.

Given the reaction: 4NH3 + 502 4NO + 6H2O
Ainat [17]

Answer:

\frac{4}{5} moles

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

      4NH₃   +  5O₂  →  4NO  +  6H₂O

The number of moles of O₂ that completely reacted is given as 1 mole

To solve this problem, we are going to use a stoichiometric approach from the balanced reaction equation:

         5 moles of O₂ will react completely to produce 4 moles of NO

        1 mole of O₂ will therefore react to produce  x mole of NO

               5x  = 4

                 x  = \frac{4}{5} moles of NO
