Rutherford theorized that atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.
This was famous Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment: he bombarded thin foil of gold with positive alpha particles (helium atom particles, consist of two protons and two neutrons).
Rutherford observed the deflection of alpha particles on the photographic film and notice that most of alpha particles passed straight through foil.
That is different from Plum Pudding model, because it shows that most of the atom is empty space.
According to Rutherford model of the atom:
1) Atoms have their charge concentrated in a very small nucleus.
2) Major space in an atom is empty.
3) Atoms nucleus is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electrons.
4) An atom is electrically neutral.
It is 4/10 of moles is this ane halp?
Answer:
The empirical formula of the compound C₃H₆N₂ is C₃H₆N₂
Explanation:
The empirical formula of a compound is the formula of the compound given in the (smallest) whole number ratio of the elements of the compound
The empirical formula of S₂O₂ is SO
The empirical formula of C₃H₆O₃ is CH₂O
The given compound's molecular formula is C₃H₆N₂
The smallest whole number ratio of of the elements of the compound is 3:6:2, therefore, the empirical formula of the compound C₃H₆N₂ is C₃H₆N₂.
Answer:
The atomic number of<span>N<span>157</span></span>
The number of protons is 7
The number of electrons is 7
The number of neutrons is 8
Explanation:
The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7 because Nitrogen has 7 protons.
The seven protons attract 7 electrons in the ground state.
If the atom had fewer or more than 7 protons the atom would not be Nitrogen.
The mass of the atom is the sum of protons and neutron. so
p + n = mass ( protons (p) and neutrons(n) both have an atomic mass of one
7 + n = 15 subtract 7 from both sides
<span>7−7+n=15−7</span>
n = 8
