A molecule in a gas container hits a horizontal wall with speed 200 m s–1 and angle 30° with the normal, and rebounds with the same speed. Is momentum conserved in the collision? Is the collision elastic or inelastic?

-

Ans: Yes; Collision is elastic collision.

The momentum of the gas molecule is remain conserved whether it is elastic or inelastic collision. 

The gas molecule moves with a velocity of 200 m/s and strikes the stationary wall of the gas container, rebounding with the same speed. 

It shows that the rebound velocity of the wall is zero. Hence, the total kinetic energy(K.E) of the molecule remains conserved during the collision between the molecules. The given example of collision is an  an elastic collision.

Diagonal Relationship between Beryllium and Aluminium || Relation between Beryllium and Aluminium

-
  Diagonal Relationship between Beryllium and Aluminium The ionic radius of Beryllium (Be 2+) is estimated to be nearly 31 pm; the charge/radius ratio Or e/m ratio is nearly the same as that of the Al 3+ ion. Hence beryllium resembles aluminium in these ways. Some of the similarities are given below: » Like Aluminium, Beryllium(be) is not readily attacked by acids H+ donor because of the formation of an oxide film on the surface of the metal by reacting with oxygen, i.e. they are rendered passive by nitric acid. » Beryllium hydroxide[[Be(OH)4]2] dissolves in excess of alkali to give a beryllate ion, [ Be(OH)4]2– just as aluminium hydroxide[Al(OH)3] gives aluminate ion, [Al(OH)4] » The chlorides of metals beryllium and aluminium have Cl– bridged chloride structure in vapour phase. Both the chlorides are soluble in organic solvents and are strong as Lewis acids They are used as Friedel Craft catalysts. » Beryllium(Be) and aluminium(Al) ions have strong tendency to form complexes, (Be...

Phosphorus and chlorine form two compounds.The first compound contains 22.54% by mass of phosphorus and 77.46% by mass of chlorine. In the second compound the percentages are 14.88 for phosphorus and 85.12 for chlorine. Show that these data are consistent with the law of multiple proportions.

Ques : Phosphorus and chlorine form two compounds The first compound contains 22.54% by mass of phosphorus and 77.46% by mass of chlorine. In the second compound the percentages are 14.88 for phosphorus and 85.12 for chlorine. Show that these data are consistent with the law of multiple proportions. Ans : In the first compound,        Percentage of phosphorus = 22.54         Percentage of chlorine = 77.46 Thus, 22.54 g of phosphorus combines with 77.46 g chlorine. In the second compound,        Percentage of phosphorus = 14.88        Percentage of chlorine = 85.12 Thus, 14.88 g of phosphorus combine with 85.12 g of chlorine. Let us fix the mass of phosphorus as 1 g and find the different masses of chlorine which combine with 1 g of phosphorus in two compounds. In the first compound,      Mass of chlorine which combines with 22.54 g of phosphorus = 77.46 g     The mass of chlorin...
