LenKa [72]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Magnesium is a naturally ubiquitous; (appearing & found evrywhere) element and has three naturally occurring stable isotopes, 24Mg, 25Mg and 26Mg, with relative abundance of 78.99%, 10.00% and 11.01%, respectively.

However, they differ only because a 24Mg atom has 12 neutrons in its nucleus, a 25Mg atom has 13 neutrons, and a 26Mg has 14 neutrons.

A gas of 19 mL at a pressure of 740 mmHg can be expected to change its pressure when its volume changes to 30. mL. Express its n
Soloha48 [4]

To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

 

P1V1 =P2V2

P2 = P1V1/V2

P2 = 740mmhg x 19 mL / 30 mL

<span>P2 = 468.67 mmHg = 0.62 atm</span>

Naming ionic compounds what are the structural units that make up ionic compounds and how are they named answers
Marizza181 [45]
Ionic compounds are the combination of two elements, one of which is a metal, while the other is a nonmetal. The intermolecular forces binding them is called an ionic bond. To name an ionic compound, take the name of the metal element first, followed by the nonmetal, but adding the suffix -ide. For example, NaCl is named as sodium chloride.

The man responsible for discovering that the atom is mostly space is: Millikan Dalton Bohr Einstein Rutherford
kodGreya [7K]

Answer: Rutherford.


Explanation:


It was the scientist Ernest Rutherford who, by 1911, performed the gold foil experiment in which α particles were shoot to a thin foild of gold.


That experiment showed that although most α particles passed through the thin gold foild, some of them were deviated in small angles and some other were bounced backward.


The conclusion of the experiment was that the atom contained a small dense positively charged nucleous and negative particles (electrons) surroundiing the nucleous. Being the space in between the nucleous and the electrons empty.


Before Rutherford's experiment the model of the atom was that of the plum pudding presented by J.J Thomson, in which the atom was a solid positively charged sphere with embeded negative charge uniformly distributed in it.
