Properties of matter can be broadly classified into two categories:
-Physical properties, these usually involve a change in the state of matter
-Chemical properties. these involve a change in the chemical composition of matter.
Now, physical properties can be further classified as:
Extensive: these depend on the amount of the substance, eg: mass, volume
Intensive: these do not depend on the amount of the substance eg: density, color, melting point, boiling point
A physical property that does not describe a change in state is color. For example: copper sulfate is a compound which is a blue in color. Thus, color provides information which describes the appearance of matter. In contrast, properties like melting or boiling point suggests a change in the state of the substance.
Answer:
Thomson placed two magnets on either side of the tube, and observed that this magnetic field also deflected the cathode ray. The results of these experiments helped Thomson determine the mass-to-charge ratio of the cathode ray particles, which led to a fascinating discovery, minus the mass of each particle was much, much smaller than that of any known atom. Thomson repeated his experiments using different metals as electrode materials, and found that the properties of the cathode ray remained constant no matter what cathode material they originated from. From this evidence, Thomson made the following conclusions:
The cathode ray is composed of negatively-charged particles.
The particles must exist as part of the atom, since the mass of each particle is only ~1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen atom.
These subatomic particles can be found within atoms of all elements.
While controversial at first, Thomson's discoveries were gradually accepted by scientists. Eventually, his cathode ray particles were given a more familiar name: electrons. The discovery of the electron disproved the part of Dalton's atomic theory that assumed atoms were indivisible. In order to account for the existence of the electrons, an entirely new atomic model was needed.
Explanation:
Answer:
Volume of container = 0.0012 m³ or 1.2 L or 1200 ml
Explanation:
Volume of butane = 5.0 ml
density = 0.60 g/ml
Room temperature (T) = 293.15 K
Normal pressure (P) = 1 atm = 101,325 pa
Ideal gas constant (R) = 8.3145 J/mole.K)
volume of container V = ?
Solution
To find out the volume of container we use ideal gas equation
PV = nRT
P = pressure
V = volume
n = number of moles
R = gas constant
T = temperature
First we find out number of moles
<em>As Mass = density × volume</em>
mass of butane = 0.60 g/ml ×5.0 ml
mass of butane = 3 g
now find out number of moles (n)
n = mass / molar mass
n = 3 g / 58.12 g/mol
n = 0.05 mol
Now put all values in ideal gas equation
<em>PV = nRt</em>
<em>V = nRT/P</em>
V = (0.05 mol × 8.3145 J/mol.K × 293.15 K) ÷ 101,325 pa
V = 121.87 ÷ 101,325 pa
V = 0.0012 m³ OR 1.2 L OR 1200 ml
