When Rutherford ran his gold foil experiment, he expected to see results like those in the Plum Pudding Atom simulation. Instead

, his experimental results were closer to those seen in the Rutherford Atom simulation.
Why can’t the plum pudding model of the atom explain Rutherford’s experimental results?

A. Since some alpha particles were deflected, the atom must contain a small region with a strong electric charge.

B. Since most of the alpha particles were not deflected, the atom’s positive charges must be spread thinly across a large region.

C. Since some of the alpha particles were deflected, the atom’s negative charges must not be attracted to the alpha particles.

D. Since most of the alpha particles were not deflected, the atom’s negative charges must exist in a thin cloud around the atom.

Rutherford's result can not be explained on the basis of the plum pudding model because of the fact that, since some alpha particles were deflected, the atom must contain a small region with a strong electric charge.

The empirical study of the atom led to the emergence of several models of the atom. In the Plum - pudding model, the atom was regarded as a positively charged sphere with embedded negative charges.

This model can not interpret the Rutherford experiment since alpha particles were deflected. The deflection of alpha particles means that, the atom must contain a small region with a strong electric charge.

How is the periodic law demonstrated in halogens
inn [45]
Halogens is defined as the group of 7 periodic table. As, every periodic table contains 7 valence electrons and they only need 1 more to complete an outer shell, that is why they are extremely reactive. And according to the law that recurring patterns of the properties of elements arise when they are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. As the halogen all act very similarly with each other in chemical reaction, it is true.

Sodium metal and water react to create sodium hydrogen and hydrogen gas through the unbalanced equation.
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Theoretical yield = 2.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium = 79.7 g

Mass of water = 45.3 g

Theoretical yield of hydrogen gas = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

Number of moles of sodium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 79.7 g / 23 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.5 mol

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 45.3 g / 18g/mol

Number of moles = 2.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen gas with water and sodium.

                        H₂O           :             H₂

                           2             :              1

                          2.5           :            1/2×2.5 =1.25 mol

                     

                           Na           :              H₂

                             2            :               1

                           3.5           :             1/2×3.5 =1.75 mol

water will be limiting reactant.

Theoretical yield:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  1.25 mol  × 2 g/mol

Mass = 2.5 g
