A particle of ionizing radiation creates 4,600 ion pairs in the gas inside a Geiger tube as it passes through. What minimum energy (in J) was deposited, if 21.0 eV is required to create each ion pair?
If all of this energy is converted to thermal energy in the gas, what is its temperature increase (in K), assuming 55.0 cm3 of ideal gas at 0.300 atm pressure? (The small answer is consistent with the fact that the energy is large on a quantum mechanical scale but small on a macroscopic scale. Assume the initial temperature of the gas is 293 K.)
Assume a hydrogen atom is a sphere with diameter 0.100 nm and a hydrogen molecule consists of two such spheres in contact. (a) What fraction of the space in a tank of hydrogen gas at 0°C and 1.00 atm is occupied by the hydrogen molecules themselves? (b) What fraction of the space within one hydrogen atom is occupied by its nucleus, of radius 1.20 fm?
In the planetary model of the atom where electrons orbit a centralized nucleus, what is the approximate ratio of the radius of the nucleus to that of the electron orbits?
