Rutherford's atomic structure model was revolutionary. Contrary to J.J. Thompson's "plum pudding" model (which consisted of a solid, even mixture of protons and electrons), Rutherford's model consisted of one small, positively charged, dense nucleus, a layer of empty space, and a layer of negatively charged electrons. He came to this conclusion through his gold-foil experiment. He shot a ray of alpha particles towards the thin gold foil, and to Rutherford's surprise, some of the rays reflected back instead of going straight through the foil as he originally thought.

Under standard-state conditions, which of the following half-reactions occurs at the cathode during the electrolysis of aqueous
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The following reaction will occur at cathode:

Ni^{+2}(aq)+2e--->Ni(s)

Explanation:

The two half reaction during electrolysis of aqueous nickel sulfate will be

a) anode reaction :

Water will undergo oxidation and will evolve oxygen gas at anode as shown in the given reaction:

2H_{2}O(l) ----> O_{2}(g) + 4H^{+}(aq) + 4e

b) Cathode reaction: The reduction of Nickel ion will occur by gain of two electrons as shown in the given equation:

Ni^{+2}(aq)+2e--->Ni(s)

Thus the overall reaction will be:

2H_{2}O(l) + 2Ni^{+2}----> O_{2}(g) + 4H^{+}(aq) + 2Ni(s)
