a. the ratio of mass to charge of an electron
Explanation:
The experiment permitted the direct measurement of the ratio of mass to charge of an electron.
- The charge to mass ratio of an electron was determine by accelerating a beam of cathode rays in magnetic and electric fields.
- No matter the gas used in the tube or the nature of the material of the electrodes, the rays were found to have constant charge to mass ratio of 1.76 x 10¹¹coulombkg⁻¹.
