in rutherford's gold foil experiment a very small number of alpha particles were deflected. what about the structure of the atom

s that could have caused this?
Chemistry

Answer:The atom being mostly empty space. A small number of alpha particles were deflected by large angles (> 4°) as they passed through the foil. There is a concentration of positive charge in the atom. Like charges repel, so the positive alpha particles were being repelled by positive charge

Iron(II) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the reaction:
Inessa [10]
The balanced chemical reaction would be:

FeS(s)+2HCl(aq)→FeCl2(s)+H2S(g) 

We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. We use these amounts. First, we determine the limiting reactant of the reaction. From the data, we can say that FeS is the limiting ad HCl is the excess reactant. We calculate as follows:

Amount of HCl used: 0.240 mol FeS x 2 mol HCl / 1 mol FeS = 0.48 mol HCl

0.646 - 0.48 = 0.166 mol HCl left

What is evaporation? Describe what happens at the molecular level during evaporation.
jasenka [17]
 Evaporation happens<span> when atoms or </span>molecules<span> escape from the liquid and turn into a vapor. Not all of the </span>molecules in a liquid have the same energy. <span>Sometimes a </span>liquid<span> can be sitting in one place (maybe a puddle) and its molecules will become a </span>gas<span>. That's the process called </span>evaporation<span>. It can happen when liquids are cold or when they are warm. It happens more often with warmer liquids. You probably remember that when matter has a higher temperature, the molecules have a higher </span>energy<span>. When the energy in specific molecules reaches a certain level, they can have a </span>phase change<span>. Evaporation is all about the energy in individual molecules, not about the average energy of a system. The average energy can be low and the evaporation still continues. </span>

Water has a boiling point of 100.0°C and a Kb of 0.512°C/m. What is the boiling
Reil [10]

Answer:

The boiling  point of a 8.5 m solution of Mg3(PO4)2 in water is<u> 394.91 K.</u>

Explanation:

The formula for molal boiling Point elevation is :

\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}m

\Delta T_{b} = elevation in boiling Point

K_{b} = Boiling point constant( ebullioscopic constant)

m = molality of the solution

<em>i =</em> Van't Hoff Factor

Van't Hoff Factor = It takes into accounts,The abnormal values of Temperature change due to association and dissociation .

In solution Mg3(PO4)2 dissociates as follow :

Mg_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+} + 2 PO_{4}^{3-}

Total ions after dissociation in solution :

= 3 ions of Mg + 2 ions of phosphate

Total ions = 5

<em>i =</em> Van't Hoff Factor = 5

m = 8.5 m

K_{b} = 0.512 °C/m

Insert the values and calculate temperature change:

\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}m

\Delta T_{b} = 5\times 0.512\times 8.5

\Delta T_{b} = 21.76 K

Boiling point of pure water = 100°C = 273.15 +100 = 373.15 K

\Delta T_{b} = T_{b} - T_{b}_{pure}

T_{b}_{pure} = 373.15 K[/tex]

21.76 = T - 373.15

T = 373.15 + 21.76

T =394.91 K
