The question is incomplete, the complete question is:
Which statements are consistent with Dalton's atomic theory as it was originally stated? Why?
a. Sulfur and oxygen atoms have the same mass.
b. All cobalt atoms are identical.
c. Potassium and chlorine atoms combine in a 1:1 ratio to form potassium chloride.
d. Lead atoms can be converted into gold.
<u>Answer: </u>The correct options are b) and c).
<u>Explanation:</u>
Some of the postulates of Dalton's atomic theory are:
- All matter is made of very tiny particles called atoms that participate in chemical reactions
- Atoms are indivisible particles that cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction
- Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties
- Atoms of different elements have different masses and chemical properties.
- Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.
- The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound.
For the given options:
<u>For a:</u>
The statement is inconsistent with the theory as no two elements can have the same mass. Only atoms of the same element can have the same mass.
This is consistent with the theory as atoms of the same element are identical.
This is consistent with the theory as atoms combine in a simple whole number ratio.
The statement is inconsistent with the theory as atoms of one element cannot be changed to atoms of other element.
Hence, the correct options are b) and c).
Answer:
If the temperature increases the molecular movement as well, and if it increases the same it will happen with the molecular movement.
Pressure, volume and temperature are three factors that are closely related since they increase the temperature, the pressure usually decreases due to the dispersion of the molecules that can be generated, so the volume also increases.
If the temperature drops, the material becomes denser, its molecules do not collide with each other, their volume and pressure increases.
Explanation:
The pressure is related to the molecular density and the movement that these molecules have.
The movement is regulated by temperature, since if it increases, the friction and collision of the molecules also.
On the other hand, the higher the volume, the less pressure there will be on the molecules, since they are more dispersed among themselves.
(in the opposite case that the volume decreases, the pressure increases)
Answer:
Cell Membrane
The thin, flexible outer covering of a cell. It controls what enters and leaves a cell.
Explanation:
I would think that it’s C, but try to get a second opinion as well!!
