At the suggestion of Earnest Rutherford, hans Geiger and ernest Marsden bombarded a thin gold foil by alpha-particles from a polonium source. It was expected that alpha-particles would go right through the foil with hardly any deflection. Although, most of the alpha particles indeed were not deviated by much, a few were scattered through veryi large angles. Some were even scattered in the backward direction. The nly way to explain the results, rutherford found, was to picture an atom as being compoed of a tiny nucleus in which its positive charge and nearly all its mass are concentrated. Scattering of alpha-particles is proportional to target thickness and is inversely proportional to the fourth power of sin((theta)/(2)), where, theta is scattering angle. Distance of closest approach may be calculated as: r_("min")=(Z_(1)Z_(2)e^(2))/(4piepsi_(0)K) where, K=kinetic energy of alpha-particles. Q. Alpha particles that come closer to the nuclei: |

At room temperature, ammonia gas at 1 atm pressure and hydrogen chloride gas at P atm pressure are allowed to effuse through identical pin holes from opposite ends of a glass tube of one metre length and of uniform cross section. Ammonium chloride is first formed at a distance of 60 cm from the end through which HCl gas is sent in. What is the value of P? |
|
Answer» For ammonia, `P_1 = 1 " ATM, " M_1 =17` for HCl gas, `P_2 = P = ?, M_2 = 36.5`. Ift is the TIME taken by the TWO gases to meet together and to form ammonium chloride, rate of diffusion of `NH_3 (r_1) = (100 - 60)/t =40/t` ( `:. " The distance travelled by " NH_3 " in the tube " = 100 - 60 cm)` and rate of diffusion of `HCI (r_2) =60/t` For two gases at different pressures, Graham.s LAW can be expressed as `r_1/r_1 = sqrt(M_2/M_1)* P_1/P_2` We have `(49//t)/(60//t)=sqrt((36.5)/17) xx1/P` `:.
