vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

When we add salt to water entropy of the system increases because some amount of energy is released as salt dissolves in the water due to the dissociation of ions.

Therefore entropy of the system after the salt dissolves is highest among them all and the least entropy is associated when mixing begins.

Entropy is the degree of randomness and it increases when salt dissociates to $Na^{+}\ and\ Cl^{-}$ as these ions are freer to move inside an aqueous solution compared to Previous state.

Why did thomson’s results from experimenting with cathode rays cause a big change in scientific thought about atoms?

natima [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Before Thomson's discovery, atoms were believed according to the "Dalton's atomic theory" to be the smallest indivisible particle of any matter. This makes atoms the smallest unit of a matter.

Thomson in 1897, used the discharge tube to discover cathode rays which are today called electrons.

The discovery of electrons provided more light into the structure and nature of atoms. Atoms were now being seen in a different light as particles that are made up of other smaller sized particles.

Thomson through his experiment was able determine perfectly well the nature of the rays he saw emanating from the cathode. One of his findings shows that the rays are negatively charged and are repelled by negative charges.

The discovery of electrons further led to more works on the atom and other particles were discovered. Atoms were no longer seen as indivisible or the smallest particles of matter.

Answers:

a) $2.82(10)^{21} kg$

b) $1410 J$

c) $36.62 m/s$

Explanation:

<h3>a) Mass of the continent</h3>

Density $\rho$ is defined as a relation between mass $m$ and volume $V$ :

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$ (1)

Where:

$\rho=2720 kg/m^{3}$ is the average density of the continent

$m$ is the mass of the continent

$V$ is the volume of the continent, which can be estimated is we assume it as a a slab of rock 5300 km on a side and 37 km deep:

$V=(length)(width)(depth)=(5300 km)(5300 km)(37 km)=1,030,330,000 km^{3} \frac{(1000 m)^{3}}{1 km^{3}}=1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3}$

Finding the mass:

$m=\rho V$ (2)

$m=(2720 kg/m^{3})(1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3})$ (3)

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ (4) This is the mass of the continent

<h3>b) Kinetic energy of the continent</h3>

Kinetic energy $K$ is given by the following equation:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$ (5)

Where:

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ is the mass of the continent

$v=4.8 \frac{cm}{year} \frac{1 m}{100 cm} \frac{1 year}{365 days} \frac{1 day}{24 hours} \frac{1 hour}{3600 s}=1(10)^{-9} m/s$ is the velocity of the continent

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.82(10)^{21} kg)(1(10)^{-9} m/s)^{2}$ (6)

$K=1410 J$ (7) This is the kinetic energy of the continent

<h3>c) Speed of the jogger</h3>

If we have a jogger with mass $m=77 kg$ and the same kinetic energy as that of the continent $1413 J$ , we can find its velocity by isolating $v$ from (5):

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 K}{m}}$ (6)

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1413 J)}{77 kg}}$

Finally:

$v=36.62 m/s$ This is the speed of the jogger
