Use the Bohr-Rutherford model of the atom to explain how an insulator-differs from a conductor

Chemistry
1 answer:
GaryK [48]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A conductor is a material that permits electrons to effortlessly go through it. Copper is a good conductor. Note that the valence shell has just a single electron.

While;

Materials that don't conduct are named insulators.(i.e. glass, porcelain, plastic, elastic. The covering on electrical wire is an insulator.)

Insulators don't conduct since they have a full or almost full valence shell and along these lines their electrons are firmly bound.

Explanation:

According to Bohr Rutherford model of Atom, An Atom contains three essential particles; Protons and neutrons that make up the nucleus and the electrons that circle or orbit the nucleus. The electrons circle the nucleus.

An enzyme with molecular weight of 310 kDa undergoes a change in shape when the substrate binds. This change can be characterize
oee [108]

Answer:

(a) r = 6.26 * 10⁻⁷cm

(b) r₂ = 6.05 * 10⁻⁷cm

Explanation:

Using the sedimentation coefficient formula;

s =  M(1-Vρ) / Nf ; where s is sedimentation coefficient, M is molecular weight, V is specific volume of protein, p is density of the solvent, N is Avogadro number, f if frictional force = 6πnr, n is viscosity of the medium, r is radius of particle

s = M ( 1 - Vρ) / N*6πnr

making r sbjct of formula, r =  M (1 - Vρ) / N*6πnrs

Note: S = 10⁻¹³ sec, 1 KDalton = 1 *10³ g/mol, I cP = 0.01 g/cm/s

r = {(3.1 * 10⁵ g/mol)(1 - (0.732 cm³/g)(1 g/cm³)} / { (6.02 * 10²³)(6π)(0.01 g/cm/s)(11.7 * 10⁻¹³ sec)

r = 6.26 * 10⁻⁷cm

b. Using the formula r₂/r₁ = s₁/s₂

s₂ = 0.035 + 1s₁ = 1.035s₁

making r₂ subject of formula; r₂ = (s₁ * r₁) / s₂ = (s₁ * r₁) / 1.035s₁

r₂ = 6.3 * 10⁻⁷cm / 1.035

r₂ = 6.05 * 10⁻⁷cm

A chemical reaction in which an uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound is called a
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A chemical reaction in which an uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound is called a simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction.

Explanation:

A simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction, called single-displacement reaction, is a reaction in which an element of a compound is substituted by another element involved in the reaction. The starting materials are always pure elements and an aqueous compound. And a new pure aqueous compound and a different pure element are generated as products. The general form of a simple substitution reaction is:

AB + C → A +BC

where C and A are pure elements; C replaces A within compound AB to form a new co, placed CB and elementary A.

So, in a Single replacement reaction an uncombined element replaces an element.

<u><em>A chemical reaction in which an uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound is called a simple substitution reaction or simple displacement reaction.</em></u>
