Answer:

The correct answer is a. electrons are distributed around the nucleus and occupy almost all the volume of the atom.

Explanation:

Rutherford's experiment was to bombard a very thin sheet of gold (Au atoms) with alpha particles (positive charges). He thought that if the atom is composed by both negative and positive charges together (as Thompson had proposed) it would be electrically neutral and the positive charges would pass without deviation. He observed that most of the particles passed throught the sheet without deviation (as he expected) but several particles suffered a considerable deviation and others had bounced towards the emission source. So, he proposed a new atomic model in which the positive charge is concentred in the nucleus (alpha particles which passed nearly the nucleus were repelled with a considerable deviation) and surrounding the nucleus are the electrons (negative charge) which occupy a larger volume.

A metal sample weighing 129.00 grams and at a temperature of 97.8 degrees Celsius was placed in 45.00 grams of water in a calori

Nitella [24]

Answer : The specific heat of metal is $0.481J/g^oC$ .

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

$q_1=-q_2$

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)$

where,

$c_1$ = specific heat of metal = ?

$c_2$ = specific heat of water = $4.184J/g^oC$

$m_1$ = mass of metal = 129.00 g

$m_2$ = mass of water = 45.00 g

$T_f$ = final temperature = $39.6^oC$

$T_1$ = initial temperature of metal = $97.8^oC$

$T_2$ = initial temperature of water = $20.4^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

$129.00g\times c_1\times (39.6-97.8)^oC=-45.00g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (39.6-20.4)^oC$

$c_1=0.481J/g^oC$

Therefore, the specific heat of metal is $0.481J/g^oC$ .

What are the 5 principles of kinetic molecular theory?

leva [86]

The kinetic molecular theory of gases is stated in the following four principles: The space between gas molecules is much larger than the molecules themselves. Gas molecules are in constant random motion. The average kinetic energy is determined solely by the temperature.

I got this from my notes from my chemistry class last semester

The airbags that protect people in car crashes are inflated by the extremely rapid decomposition of sodium azide, which produces

Oxana [17]

Answer:

1. NaN₃(s) → Na(s) + 1.5 N₂(g)

2. 79.3g

Explanation:

1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid sodium azide (NaN₃) into solid sodium and gaseous dinitrogen.

NaN₃(s) → Na(s) + 1.5 N₂(g)

2. Suppose 43.0L of dinitrogen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 13.0°C and pressure of exactly 1atm. Calculate the mass of sodium azide that must have reacted. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.

First, we have to calculate the moles of N₂ from the ideal gas equation.

$P.V=n.R.T\\n=\frac{P.V}{R.T} =\frac{1atm.(43.0L)}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).286.2K} =1.83mol$

The moles of NaN₃ are:

$1.83molN_{2}.\frac{1molNaN_{3}}{1.5molN_{2}} =1.22molNaN_{3}$

The molar mass of NaN₃ is 65.01 g/mol. The mass of NaN₃ is:

$1.22mol.\frac{65.01g}{mol} =79.3g$

How many carbon atoms are represented by the model below A) 0 B) 3 C) 2 D) 1

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Option (B) 3.

Explanation:

In the model represented above, the two extreme represent carbon atoms since no other group are attached to it. The joint at the middle also represent carbon atom.

Thus, we can write a more simplify illustration for the model above as

C—C—C

From the above illustration, we can see that the model contains 3 carbon atom.
