Rutherford’s gold foil experiment provided evidence for which of the following statements?a. Negative and positive charges are spread evenly throughout an atom.
b. Alpha particles have a positive charge.
c. Gold is not as dense as previously thought.
d. There is a dense, positively charged mass in the center of an atom. Reset Selection

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The answer is (c.) There is a dense, positively charged mass in the center of an atom
In 1899, Ernest Rutherford, a British physicist conducted a study of the absorption of radioactivity by thin sheets of metal foil. On this experiment, he concluded that all the positive charge and the mass of the atom is concentrated in a small fraction of the total volume of the atom which is called the Nucleus.

Answers

Consider this system: CH3COOH(aq) H+(aq) + CH3COO- Ka = 1.8 x 10-5 
The equilibrium as OH- ions are added;

A) H+ will combine with OH- to form water. 

C) The acid will dissociate to supply more H+. 
D) The reaction will move to the right. 

Answer : The correct options are, (A), (C) and (D)

Explanation :

Le-Chatelier's principle : It states that if any change in the variables of the reaction, then the equilibrium will shift in that direction where the effect will be minimum.

The balanced equilibrium reaction will be,

CH_3COOH(aq)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq)+CH_3COO^-

As the concentration of H^+ are decreased, the equilibrium will shift in a direction where concentration of H^+ is increasing and thus the dissociation of acid will increase to supply more of H^ ions. During this process the reaction will move to the right direction.

In the given equilibrium reaction when the OH^- are added then the H^+ ion will combine with OH^- ion to form water.

Hence, the correct options are, (A), (C) and (D)

Highlight the basic points in Lewis and Langmuir theory of electrovalency

Answers

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Electrovalency is characterized with the transferring of one or more electrons from one atom to another together with the formation of ions and as well as the number of positive and negative charges. 

The Lewis and Langmuir theory of electrovalency (and as well as Kossel's) is dealing with Ionic bonds. 

Lewis: electron-pair sharing, octet rule, Lewis Symbols or StructureLangmuir: introduced term "covalent" bond, and popularized Lewis's ideas

The Lewis-Langmuir electron-pair or covalent bond is referred as the homopolar bond, where the complete transfer of electrons give rise to ionic, or electrovalent bond (1) through attraction of opposite charges.

Another name for the activated complex is _____.a. energy barrier
b. transition state
c. rate limiter
d. collision group

Answers

Answer:

                   Another name for the activated complex is Transition State.

Explanation:

                     According to Collision Theory for a chemical reaction to occur the reactants must collide with proper orientation and required energy. In this way the old bonds are broken and new bonds are formed. The mid point of highest energy at which both bond formation and breakage is taking place is called activation complex, a complex in between reactant and product.

                      The energy of this complex is the minimum amount of energy required for a particular reactants to convert into products and is called as Activation Energy.

                      This activation complex is also termed as Transition State because according to Transition State Theory at transition state the existing bonds tend to increase in length and become weaken while, the new forming bonds tend to decrease in length and start becoming stronger. Hence, the activated complex is in transition between reactants and products.

H2SO4 + 2 NaCl --> 2 HCl + Na2SO4

Answers

Answer:

For 3: The correct answer is Option A.

For 4: The correct answer is Option C.

For 5: The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

  • For 3:

There are 2 types of solutions on the basis of pH.

An acid is defined as the chemical substance which looses hydrogen ions in a solution.

A weak acid does not completely dissociates into its ions but a strong acid completely dissociates into its ions when dissolved in water.

A base is defined as the chemical substance which looses hydroxide ions in a solution.

A weak base does not completely dissociates into its ions but a strong base completely dissociates into its ions when dissolved in water.

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

  • For 4:

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

For the given chemical equation:

H_2O+HCl\rightarrow H_3O^++Cl^-

H_2O is considered as a bronsted-lowry base because it is accepting hydrogen ion to form hydronium ion

HCl is considered as a bronsted-lowry acid because it is donating hydrogen ion to form chloride ion.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

  • For 5:

Neutralization reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an acid reacts with a base to produce a salt and water molecule.

HX+BOH\rightarrow BX+H_2O

For the given options:

Option A:

The chemical equation follows:

NH_3+HCl\rightarrow NH_4Cl

This is an example of neutralization reaction because ammonia is considered as a base and when it reacts with HCl, it leads to the production of salt.

Option B:

The chemical equation follows:

NaOH+CH_3COOH\rightarrow CH_3COONa+H_2O

This is an example of neutralization reaction.

Option C:

The chemical equation follows:

2HNO_3+Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca(NO_3)_2+2H_2O

This is an example of neutralization reaction.

Option D:

The chemical equation follows:

H_2SO_4+2NaCl\rightarrow 2HCl+Na_2SO_4

This is an example of double displacement reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is Option D.
