After he conducted cathode ray tube experiments proving the existence of negatively charged particles we now call electrons, Tho
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Answer is explained below;

Explanation:

In 1904, after the discovery of the electron, the English physicist Sir J.J. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of an atom. In this model, the atom had a positively-charged space with negatively charged electrons embedded inside it i.e., like a pudding (positively charged space) with plums (electrons) inside.

In 1911, another physicist Ernest Rutherford proposed another model known as the Rutherford model or planetary model of the atom that describes the structure of atoms. In this model, the small and dense atom has a positively charged core called the nucleus. Also, he proposed that just like the planets revolving around the Sun, the negatively charged electrons are moving around the nucleus.

By conducting a gold foil experiment, Rutherford disproved Thomson's model. In this experiment, positively charged alpha particles emitted from a radioactive source enclosed within a protective lead were used which was then focused into a narrow beam. It was then passed through a slit in front of which a thin section of gold foil was placed. A fluorescent screen (coated with zinc sulfide) was also placed in front of the slit to detect alpha particles which on striking the fluorescent screen would produce scintillation (a burst of light) which was visible through a microscope attached to the back of the screen.

He observed that most of the alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil without any resistance and this implied that atoms contain a large amount of open space. The slight deflection of some of the alpha particles, the large-angle scattering of other alpha particles and even the bouncing back of a very few alpha particles toward the source suggested their interactions with other positively charged particles inside the atom.

So, he concluded that only a dense and positively charged particle such as the nucleus would be responsible for such strong repulsion. Also, the negatively charged electrons electrically balanced the positive nuclear charge and they moved around the nucleus in circular orbits. Between the electrons and nucleus, there was an electrostatic force of attraction just like the gravitational force of attraction between the sun and the revolving planets.

Later, the Rutherford model was replaced by the Bohr atomic model.

On the basis of the information above, what is the approximate percent ionization of HNO2 in a 1.0 M HNO2 (aq) solution?
enot [183]

Answer:

The answer is "2%"

Explanation:

Equation:

HNO_2\ (aq) \leftrightharpoons  H^{+} \ (aq) + NO_2^{-}\ (aq) \\\\\  K_a = 4.0\times \ 10^{-4}

H^{+}=?

Formula:

Ka = \frac{[H^{+}][NO_2^{-}]}{[HNO_2]}

Let

[H^{+}] = [NO_2^{-}] = x at equilibrium

x^2 = (4.0\times 10^{-4})\times 1.0\\\\x = ((4.0\times 10^{-4})\times 1.0)^{0.5} = 2.0 \times 10^{-2} \  M\\\\

therefore,

[H^{+}] = 2.0\times 10^{-2} \ M = 0.02 \ M

Calculating the % ionization:

= \frac{([H^{+}]}{[HNO_2])} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{0.02}{1}\times 100 \\\\= 2\%\\\\

State the number of protons, electrons and neutron ​
skad [1K]

Answer:

You didn't show which element it is. The proton is the atomic number, the electron is the same number of protons, and the neutron is the atomic mass rounded to the nearest whole number minus the proton.

Precision Problems:
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Precision = 2.70 \± 0.1\ cm

Explanation:

Given

The data in the table

Required

Follow the steps appended to the question;

Step 1: Calculate the Mean or Average

Mean = Summation of lengths divided by number of teams;

Mean = \frac{2.65 + 2.75 + 2.80 + 2.77 + 2.60 + 2.65 + 2.68}{7}\ cm

Mean = \frac{18.9}{7}\ cm

Mean = 2.70\ cm

Step 2: Get The Range

Range = Highest - Lowest

Range = 2.80cm - 2.60cm

Range = 0.2\ cm

Step 3: Divide Range by 2

Approximate\ Range = \frac{1}{2}Range

Approximate\ Range = \frac{1}{2} * 0.2\ cm

Approximate\ Range = 0.1\ cm

Step 4: Determine the Precision

Precision = Average \± Approximate\ Range

Substitute 2.70 for Average and 0.1 for Approximate Range

Precision = 2.70 \± 0.1\ cm
