How did Rutherford's gold foil experiment show that Thomson's plum pudding model of the atom was

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ket [755]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

He blasted alpha rays at the gold foils. The Alpha rays are charged positive. When he blasted them the protons deflected and changed the course of them and the electrons surrounding the atom let them through. In the plum pudding model they were supposed to be sprinkled on which was clearly wrong according to that experiment.

An ideal gas occupies a volume V at an absolute temperature T. If the volume is halved and the pressure kept constant, what will
Kruka [31]

Answer:

It will be halve of T

Explanation:

V1 = V

T1 = T

V2 = ½V

T2 = x

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V/T = ½V/x

Vx = ½VT

2Vx = VT

2x = T

x = ½T

The volume occupied by a gas at STP is 250 L. At what pressure (in atm) will the gas occupy 1500 L, if the temperature is consta
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

6 atm

Explanation:

Using the formula P1V1=P2V2

P1= Initial Pressure

V1= Initial Volume

P2= Final Pressure

V2= Final Volume

And knowing that at stp gas will always be at 1 atm

250L(P2) = 1500

P2= 6 atm

Which substance is used to remove rust from metal
wel
<span>Chemically speaking, rust is a base and any acid will remove it. The choice of acid is going to be the thing to consider, since acid + base = salt and water. Phosphoric acid left a residue because the salt Iron phosphate is insoluble in water. Iron's soluble salts include the chloride, the sulfate and the nitrate. Industrially speaking, you need to "pickle" your iron. Pickling is a process in which dilute sulfuric acid is used to remove any surface corrosion prior to either painting or plating an iron surface. Sulfuric acid is ordinary battery acid and the salt Iron sulfate is not toxic. Sulfuric acid is one of the most common acids used (besides hydrochloric acid). The dilute kind is not terribly corrosive but concentrated sulfuric acid is a thick, syrupy liquid which can cause some nasty chemical burns if allowed to remain on the skin. It also heats up quite a lot when water is added, so this is an "Acid to water not water to acid" situation. The other choice is Hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid. The 20% concentrate is available in nearly any hardware store. It isn't as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid, but it has a burning, acrid stench, so never use the concentrate without adequate ventilation. It is ordinarily used to remove hard water deposits (boiler scale) but does a good on on rust as well. Concentrated Iron chloride isn't entirely inert but lots of rinsing will turn it back into harmless rust/sludge, especially if the rince water is naturally hard. Nitric acid will remove corrosion from anything, but it is extremely corrosive, smells worse then Hydrochloric acid and isn't easy to get, since it can be used to create some powerful explosives</span>
