Why did most of the alpha particles go straight through the gold foil in Rutherford's experiment?

Chemistry
1 answer:
andre [41]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The fact that most alpha particles went straight through the foil is because the atom is mostly empty space.

Those that passed straight through did so because they didn't encounter any nuclei.

What does it mean for a strong base to be in equilibrium?
prisoha [69]

The position of equilibrium lies far to the right, with products being favoured. Hence, option A is correct.

<h3>What is equilibrium?</h3>

Chemical equilibrium is a condition in the course of a reversible chemical reaction in which no net change in the amounts of reactants and products occurs.

A very high value of K indicates that at equilibrium most of the reactants are converted into products.

The equilibrium constant K is the ratio of the concentrations of products to the concentrations of reactants raised to appropriate stoichiometric coefficients.

When the value of the equilibrium constant is very high, the concentration of products is much higher than the concentration of reactants.

This means that most of the reactants are converted into products and the position of equilibrium lies far to the right, with products being favoured.

Hence, option A is correct.

What is the molarity of aqueous lithium bromide if 25.0 mL of LiBr reacts with 10.0 mL of 0.250 M Pb(NO 3) 2
bixtya [17]

The molarity of aqueous lithium bromide, LiBr solution is 0.2 M

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ in the solution.

  • Volume = 10 mL = 10 / 1000 = 0.01 L
  • Molarity of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.250 M
  • Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.25 × 0.01

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.0025 mole

Next, we shall determine the mole of LiBr required to react with 0.0025 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2LiBr —> PbBr₂ + 2LiNO₃

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ reacted with 2 mole of LiBr.

Therefore,

0.0025 mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ will react with = 2 × 0.0025 = 0.005 mole of LiBr

Finally, we shall determine the molarity of the LiBr solution

  • Mole = 0.005 mole
  • Volume = 25 mL = 25 / 1000 = 0.025 L
  • Molarity of LiBr =?

Molarity = mole / Volume

Molarity of LiBr = 0.005 / 0.025

Molarity of LiBr = 0.2 M

Calculate the molarity of a salt solution with a volume of 0.250L that contains 0.70 mol of NaCl. (SHOW WORK)
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

= 0.28M

Explanation:

data:

volume = 0.250 L

           = 0.250dm^3                       ( 1litre = 1dm^3)

moles = 0.70 moles

Solution:

      molarity = \frac{no. of moles}{volume in dm^3}

                 = 0.70 / 0.250

    molarity = 0.28 M
