Chemistry
1 answer:
Leno4ka [110]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The atomic nucleus is the small, dense region consisting of protons and neutrons at the center of an atom, discovered in 1911 by Ernest Rutherford based on the 1909 Geiger–Marsden gold foil experiment.

What is the ratio of effusion rates for the lightest gas, h2, to the heaviest known gas, uf6?
andriy [413]

The ratio of effusion rates for the lightest gas H₂ to the heaviest known gas UF₆ is 13.21 to 1

<h3>What is effusion?</h3>

Effusion is a process by which a gas escapes from its container through a tiny hole into evacuated space.

Rate of effusion ∝ 1/√Ц, (where Ц is molar mass)

Rate H₂ = 1/√ЦH₂

Rate UF₆ = 1/√ЦUF₆

Therefore, Rate H₂/ Rate UF₆ = √ЦH₂/√ЦUF₆

ЦH₂= 2.016 g/mol

ЦUF₆= 352.04 g/mol

Rate H₂ / Rate UF₆ = √352.04/√2.016 = 18.76/1.42

Rate H₂ / Rate UF₆ = 13.21

Therefore, H₂ is lower mass than UF₆. Thus H₂ gas will effuse 13 times more faster than UF₆ because the most probable speed of H₂ molecule is higher; therefore, more molecules escapes per unit time.

If 15 grams of Carbon dioxide is produced in a chemical reaction, how many grams of Carbon must be consumed in the reaction if w
Nata [24]

4.1g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of carbon dioxide = 15g

Mass of oxygen gas = 11g

Unknown:

Mass of carbon consumed = ?

Solution:

   Equation of the reaction:

                                              C +  O₂   →   CO₂

    To solve this problem from the balanced equation,  we have to use the amount of product formed and work to Carbon. This is because, we are sure of the amount of carbon dioxide formed but the amount of the given oxygen gas used is not precise.

  Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (16 x2) = 44g/mol

   Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{15}{44} = 0.34mole

From the equation of the reaction;

              1 mole of CO₂  is produced from 1 mole of C

           0.34mole of CO₂  will produce 0.34mole of C

Mass of carbon reacting = number of moles x molar mass = 0.34 x 12 = 4.1g

What are acid-base reactions? precipitation reactions?
Ivenika [448]
Acid base reactions also known as neutralization reactions are reactions that occur between acids and bases thus the name. Anytime this happens the product will niether an acid or base it will be neutralized to a neutral pH as in that of pure water pH 7.
Precipitation reactions occur when cations and anions in aqueous solution combine to form an insoluble ionic solid called a precipitate. Whether or not such a reaction occurs can be determined by using the solubility rules for common ionic solids.

A compound whose water solution conducts electricity and turns phenolphthalein pink is
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The compound is an <em>alkali</em>

Explanation:

Although acids and bases in solution can conduct electricity due to the presence of free ions available to carry charges, bases or alkalis turn phenolphthalein indicator pink; as opposed to acids which give colourless test on the indicator.

The anayte compound is therefore a concentrated alakli solution.
