What do you think would be the obser vation if the two particles scattering experiment is carried out using a foil of a metal other than gold ? |
| Answer» Solution :If particle scattering experiments is CARRIED out using a foil of any metal as thin as gold foil used by Rutherford, there WOULD be no change in OBSERVATIONS. But since other metals are not so malleable so, such a thin foil is difficult to obtain. If we use a thick foil, then more and particles would bounce back and no idea about the LOCATION of positive mass in the atom would be available with such a CERTAINITY. | |

What are the chemical reactions of carbon? |
|
Answer» Solution :Elemental carbon undergoes no reaction at room temperature and limited number of reactions at elevated temperatures. But its compounds undergo large number of reactions even at room temperature. Oxidation - (Reaction with oxygen) Carbon combines with oxygen to form its oxides like carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide `(CO_(2))` with evolution of heat. Organic carbon compounds like hydrocarbon also undergo oxidation to form oxides and steam with evolution of heat and FLAME. This is otherwise CALLED Burning. `2C_((s))+O_(2(g))to2CO_((g))+"heat"` `C_((s))+O_(2(g))toCO_((g))+"heat"` Reaction with steam Carbon REACTS with steam to form carbon monoxide and hydrogen. This mixture is called water gas. `C_((s))+H_(2)O_((g))toCO_((g))+H_(2(g))` Reaction with sulphur With sulphur carbon forms its DISULPHIDE at high temperature. `C_((s))+S_((g))toCS_(2(g))` Reaction with metals At elevated temperatures, carbon reacts with some metals like iron, tungsten, Titanium, etc. to form their carbides. `W_((s))+C_((g))toWC_((s))` |

X' is an alicylic hydrocarbon . with the moleclar formulaC_4H_8. Y is the corrcsponding aliphatic compound. Give all the possible isomers of y · and their IUPAC names. Identify the products of bro-mination. When Y is treated with hydrogen what are the products formed? How are these products separated from the nuxture? |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :X is cyclobutane Y is butane Isomers of Y are (a)`underset (2-"Butane")(CH_3-CH=CH-CH_3)` `underset (1-"Butane")(CH_3-CH_2=CH=CH_3)` (a), (b) are position isomers. (a) and (c)and (c) are CHAIN isomers. Therefore, the hydrogenated products aren-butane C in case (a), (b) and isobutene in case if (c):Among these two N-butane is having high boiling point than isobutane. The boiling point is PROPORTIONAL to surface area of the molecule, more is the surface area more are the intermolecular forces of attraction between the MOLECULES. So, its boiling point increases. Between n butane and isobutene n butane is having high surface areaso, boiling point is more when compared to isobutene. Hence, these two can be separated by fractional distillation. |
