Rutherford was one of the early scientists who worked on the atomic model. Before his discovery of the nucleus, the widely accepted theory was J.J Thomson's Plum Pudding Model. In this model, all the protons, electrons and neutrons are in the nucleus. But the electrons are more in number such that the electrons act as the 'pudding' and the proton and nucleus the 'plum'. This was Rutherford's hypothesis in his gold foil experiment. In order to test the Plum Pudding model, he hypothesized that when a beam of light is aimed at the atom, it would not diffract because the charges in the nucleus are well-distributed. However, his experiment disproved Thomson's model. Some light indeed passed through but a few was diffracted back to the source. He concluded that this was because there is a dense mass inside the atom called nucleus. Thus, from there on, he proposed the model that the electrons are orbiting around the nucleus.
The number of protons and neutrons combined in an atom is called the mass number.
The hotter it gets, the faster molecules move, solid form is in low temperature, liquid in medium temperature and gas in high temperature.

The partial pressure of Hydrogen gas can directly be calculated
by simply taking the difference of the overall pressure and the vapour pressure
of water. That is:
P (H2 gas) = 759.2 torr – 23.8 torr
<span>P (H2 gas) = 735.4 torr</span>
