A gaseous binary compound has a vapor density that is 1.94 times that of oxygen at the same temperature and pressure. When 1.39 g of the gas is burned in an excess of oxygen, 1.21 g water is formed, removing all the hydrogen originally present. (a) Estimate the molecular mass of the gaseous compound. (b) How many hydrogen atoms are there in a molecule of the compound? (c) What is the maximum possible value of the atomic mass of the second element in the compound? (d) Are other values possible for the atomic mass of the second element? Use a table of atomic masses to identify the element that best fits the data. (e) What is the molecular formula of the compound?
Are most elements found in nature in the elemental or the combined form? Why? Name several elements that are usually found in the elemental form.
These questions concern the work of J. J. Thomson: From Thomson’s work, which particles do you think he would feel are most important in the formation of compounds (chemical changes) and why? Of the remaining two subatomic particles, which do you place second in importance for forming compounds and why? Come up with three models that explain Thomson’s findings and evaluate them. To be complete you should include Thomson’s findings.
In the following drawing, the green spheres represent atoms of a certain element. The purple spheres represent atoms of another element. If the spheres of different elements touch, they are part of a single unit of a compound. The following chemical change represented by these spheres may violate one of the ideas of Dalton’s atomic theory. Which one?
In 1886 Eugene Goldstein observed positively charged particles moving in the opposite direction to electrons in a cathode ray tube (illustrated below). From their mass, he concluded that these particles were formed from residual gas in the tube. For example, if the cathode ray tube contained helium, the canal rays consisted of He+ ions. Describe a process that could lead to these ions. Canal rays. In 1886, Eugene Goldstein detected a stream of particles traveling in the direction opposite to that of the negatively charged cathode rays (electrons). He called this stream of positive particles "canal rays:"
Scientists J. J. Thomson and William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) made numerous contributions to our understanding of the atom’s structure. Which subatomic particle did J. J. Thomson discover, and what did this lead him to postulate about the nature of the atom? William Thomson postulated what became known as the “plum pudding” model of the atom’s structure. What did this model suggest?
List some characteristic properties that distinguish die metallic elements from the nonmetallic elements.
An element consists of 1.40% of an isotope with mass 203.973 u, 24.10% of an isotope with mass 205.9745 u, 22.10% of an isotope with mass 206.9759 u, and 52.40% of an isotope with mass 207.Y766 u. Calculate the average atomic mass, and identify the element.
Most substances are composed of _________ rather than elemental substances.
Which elements exist as diatomic molecules?
Molecules of nitrogen gas and oxygen gas are said to be , which means they consist of pairs of atoms.
