How was Rutherford’s gold foil experiment inconsistent with the plum pudding model of the atom?

According to the plum pudding model of the atom proposed by J.J. Thomson, the atom was considered to be a positive charge sphere in which electrons (negatively charged) are embedded in order to balance the positive charge.

According to Rutherford’s gold foil experiment, when he bombarded \alpha particles to the gold foil he observed that most of the particles went through, some of them got scattered in various directions, and few are deflected back to the source. Hence, this experiment shows that the plum pudding model was incorrect as; if there was the symmetrical distribution of the charges then all the \alpha particles will pass through without any deflection.

The center on your school’s basketball team is 6 ft 10 in tall. How tall is the player in millimeters (mm)?
svp [43]

The answer is 6 ft 10 inches in millimeters (mm) is 0.833 ft.

Given,

The center of the school's basketball team is 6 ft 10 inches tall.

We have to convert the height of the player from feet and inches to feet.

Using the conversion factor,

1 ft = 12 inches

or, 12inches/ 1 ft

Converting 6ft 10 inches to ft, we get;

10 inches × 1 ft/ 12inches

= 0.833 ft

Therefore 6 ft 10 inches in millimeters (mm) is 0.833 ft.

Unit conversion is a method in which we multiply or divide with a particular numerical factor and then finally round off to the nearest significant digits.

Which of the following is not a conjugate acid-base pair?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

A. H3O+/OH−

Explanation:

A conjugate acid-base pair are a pair of molecules that differ in 1 H⁺

A. The conjugate pair of H₃O⁺ = H₂O not OH⁻

B. The conjugate pair of NH₄⁺ is NH₃

C. The conjugate pair of C₂H₃O₂⁻ is HC₂H₃O₂

D. The conjugate pair of H₂SO₃ is HSO₃⁻

That means right option, that is not a conjugate acid-base pair, is:

<h3>A. H3O+/OH− </h3>
