Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

For SCl2

S = 2.8, Cl = 3.16 difference = 0.4 polar

H2S

H = 2.2 S= 2.8 difference = 0.6 polar

CF4

C = 2.55, F= 3.98 difference = 1.43

This compound is nonpolar irrespective of the difference in electronegativity because the molecule is symmetrical

PCl5

P= 2.19, Cl= 3.16 difference = 0.97

This compound is nonpolar irrespective of the difference in electronegativity because the molecule is symmetrical

CH4

C = 2.55 H = 2.2 difference = 0.35 the molecule is nonpolar

CaBr2

Ca= 1 Br= 2.96 difference = 1.96

The compound is not just polar but ionic in nature due to large electronegativity difference between the bonding atoms

SF2

S = 2.8 F= 3.98 difference = 1.18

The molecule is polar

CO2

C= 2.55 O= 3.44 difference = 0.89

This compound is nonpolar irrespective of the difference in electronegativity because the molecule is symmetrical

NH3

N= 3.04 H = 2.2 difference =0.84

The molecule is polar

NaS

Na= 0.93 S = 2.8 difference = 1.87

The compound is not just polar but ionic in nature due to large electronegativity difference between the bonding

Which statement best describes the effect of radioactive decay on a nucleus?

KATRIN_1 [288]

When radioactive decay occurs, the original nucleus splits into daughter nuclei and the resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus can be of a different element than the original.

Unstable nuclei often undergo radioactive decay. In a radioactive decay, the unstable nucleus is broken up into other nuclei. Usually, the nuclei formed during radioactive decay are smaller in mass compared to the original nucleus.

Also, the resulting nucleus is more stable than the original nucleus. The nucleus can be of a different element than the original.

How did rutherford's experimental evidence lead to the development of a new atomic number

borishaifa [10]

Rutherford's experiment was the gold foil experiment.

The gold foil experiment was him shooting alpha particles (you could think of this as a Helium atom without its electrons) into a gold foil. The whole experiment was surrounded with something called Zinc Sulfide which sparked when the alpha particles hit it.

Most of the alpha particles went through, approximately 1 in 8000 alpha particles deflected at a large angle (almost right back to where it was shot).

This constant ratio caused him to conclude that:-the atom was mostly empty space (since most alpha particles went through)-there was something very positive in the atom (the proton)-the proton was very dense (since it made something going light speed deflect back at a large angle)-The proton was also very small (since only 1 in 8000 hit it)

Prior to the discovery of the proton, John Dalton's periodic table was used. Having "elements" such as soda and potash. Now that we have discovered the proton and found out that each atom's number of protons is unique, we used that to classify each element's identity.
