In 1911, Ernest Rutherford tested the atomic model existing at the time by shooting a beam of alpha particles (42He, helium nucl

STatiana [176]

Answer:

At the time of Rutherford's experiment, the accepted model for the atom was the Thomson plum-pudding model of the atom, in which the atom consists of a "sphere" of positive charge distributed all over the sphere, with tiny negative particles (the electrons) inside this sphere.

In his experiment, Rutherford shot alpha particles towards a very thin sheet of gold foil. He observed the following things:

1- Most of the alpha particles went undeflected, but

2- Some of them were scattered at very large angles

3- A few of them were even reflected back to their original directions

Observations 2) and 3) were incompatible with Thomson model of the atom: in fact, if this model was true, all the alpha particle should have gone undeflected, or scattered at very small angles. Instead, due to observations 2) and 3), it was clear that:

- The positive charge of the atom was all concentred in a tiny nucleus

- Most of the mass of the atom was also concentrated in the nucleus

So, Rutherford experiment lead to a change in the atomic model of the atom, as it was clear that the plum-pudding model was no longer adequate to describe the results of Rutherford's experiment.

At standard temperature and pressure. 0.500 mole of xenon gas occupies

ANEK [815]

Answer:

0.500 mole of Xe (g) occupies 11.2 L at STP.

General Formulas and Concepts:

Gas Laws

STP (Standard Conditions for Temperature and Pressure) = 22.4 L per mole at 1 atm, 273 K

Stoichiometry

Mole ratio
Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify.

0.500 mole Xe (g)

Step 2: Convert

[DA] Set up: $\displaystyle 0.500 \ \text{mole Xe} \bigg( \frac{22.4 \ \text{L Xe}}{1 \ \text{mole Xe}} \bigg)$
[DA] Evaluate: $\displaystyle 0.500 \ \text{mole Xe} \bigg( \frac{22.4 \ \text{L Xe}}{1 \ \text{mole Xe}} \bigg) = 11.2 \ \text{L Xe}$

Determine the possible traits of the calves if:

White raven [17]

Answer:

1. All red calves i.e. RR

2. All roan calves i.e RW

3. 2 red calves (RR) and two roan calves (RW)

Explanation:

According to this question, a gene coding for fur colour in cattle is involved. Red alleles (R) and white alleles (W) are co-dominant to produce a roan cattle (RW). The possible traits of the following crosses are (see attached punnet square):

1) A red bull (RR) is mated to a red (RR) cow: All red calves i.e. RR

2) A red (RR) bullis mated with white (WW) cow: All roan calves i.e RW

3) A roan bull (RW) is mated with red (RR) cow: 2 red calves (RR) and two roan calves (RW).

A block of ice has edge lengths of 8.00 cm each and a mass of 476

valkas [14]

Density is calculated as mass divided by volume. If we are given an ice cube of side length 8.00 cm, then the volume of the cube is equivalent to (8.00 cm)^3 = 512 cm^3. Since we have a given mass of 476 g, we can divide:
476 g / 512 cm^3 = 0.930 g/cm^3
So the density of the sample of ice is 0.930 g/cm^3.
