- 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.arrow_forwardConsider the following data for three binary compounds of hydrogen and nitrogen: %H (by Mass) %N (by Mass) I 17.75 82.25 II 12.58 87.42 III 2.34 97.66 When 1.00 L of each gaseous compound is decomposed to its elements, the following volumes of H2(g) and N2(g) are obtained: H2(L) N2(L) I 1.50 0.50 II 2.00 1.00 III 0.50 1.50 Use these data to determine the molecular formulas of compounds I, II, and III and to determine the relative values for the atomic masses of hydrogen and nitrogen.arrow_forwardThe “Chemistry in Focus” segment Sugar of Lead discusses Pb(C2H3O2)2 , which originally was known as sugar of lead. Why was it called sugar of lead? What is the systematic name for Pb(C2H3O2)2? Why is it necessary to have a system for the naming of chemical compounds?arrow_forward

Explain. a. An individual atom should be considered to be a solid. b.An individual atom should be considered to be a liquid. c. An individual atom should be considered to be a gas. d. The state of the atom depends on which element it is. e. An individual atom cannot be considered to be a solid, liquid, or gas. Justify your choice, and for choices you did not pick, explain what is wrong with them.arrow_forwardTwo elements, R and Q, combine to form two binary compounds. In the first compound, 14.0 g of R combines with 3.00 g of Q. In the second compound, 7.00 g of R combines with 4.50 g of Q. Show that these data are in accord with the law of multiple proportions.
