Answer:
Its quite vague, instead you could say an atom is the smallest building block which further consists of subatomic particles like protons, neutrons and electrons :)
Hope thi helps :) and I'd appreciate if you'd mark brainliest because ive been stuck on the same rank for quite a long time :(
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
In the Rutherford experiment, alpha particles were directed at the same spot on a thin gold foil.
As the alpha particles hit the foil, most of the alpha particles went through the foil. In Rutherford's interpretation, most of the particles went through because the atom consisted largely of empty space.
However, some of the alpha particles were deflected through large angles, in Rutherford's interpretation, the deflected alpha particles had hit the dense positive core of the atom which he called the nucleus.
This accounted for their scattering through large angles throughout the foil in all directions.
An eagle gets energy from food. When the eagle eats food it gives them energy to be active just like us humans
Answer:
If the volume of a gas increased from 2 to 6 L while the temperature was held constant, <u><em>the pressure of the gas decreased by a factor of 3.</em></u>
Explanation:
Boyle's law that says "The volume occupied by a given gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure." This means that if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.
Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:
Pressure * Volume = constant
or
P * V = k
To obtain the proportionality factor k you must make the quotient:
k= 3
This means that <u><em>if the volume of a gas increased from 2 to 6 L while the temperature was held constant, the pressure of the gas decreased by a factor of 3.</em></u>
