Why did rutherford think that all of the alpha particles would go straight through?

Chemistry

Bad White [126]2 years ago
3 0
The fact that most alpha particles went straight through the foil is evidence for the atom being mostly empty space. A small number of alpha particles being deflected at large angles suggested that there is a concentration of positive charge in the atom.

Which pair of substances would most likely result in the production of a gas when reacting with an acid?
vovangra [49]

Answer: metal and carbonate

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius concept, a base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions (OH^-) when dissolved in water and an acid is defined as a substance which donates hydrogen ions (H^+) in water.

An acid is represented as :

HX\rightarrow H^++X^-

1. When metal is treated with an acid such as HCl, if the metal is more reactive than hydrogen displaces hydrogen from its salt solution and thus produce zinc chloride and hydrogen gas.

M+xHCl(aq)\rightarrow MCl_x(aq)+xH_2(g)

2. When carbonates are treated with acid, double displacement takes place ad carbon dioxide is released as a gas.

MCO_3(aq)+xHCl(aq)\rightarrow MCl_x(aq)+xH_2O(l)+CO_2(g)

Llana [10]

Answer: Option d. pressure increase by a factor of 3

Explanation:

P1 = P

T1 = 300k

T2 = 900K

P2 =?

Volume is constant.

P1/T1 = P2/T2

P/300 = P2/900

P2 x 300 = P x 900

P2 = (P x 900)/300

P2 = 3P

The pressure increased by a factor of 3
