To find the number of electrons, just subtract the amu and the atomic number (aka number of protons or electrons)...

so it is...

9-4=5 neutrons

Answer:

A. The model could not explain how alpha particles could be deflected at large angles.

Explanation:

The plum pudding model of the atom was proposed by J. J Thomson. He suggested that that an atom is made up of dense particles of electrons surrounded by positive charges.

From the Gold foil experiment carried out by Ernest Rutherford, he noticed that the bulk of the alpha particles targeted at the foil passed through and a little fraction was heavily deflected back.

Rutherford then presented his nuclear model from here. He suggested a massive, dense and tiny nucleus where the protons and neutrons are located. The space outside the mass is dominated by orbiting electrons.

If heat energy is transferred from direct contact between a warm object and a cold object, it has been transferred by __________
Ganezh [65]

If heat energy is transferred from direct contact between a warm object and a cold object, it has been transferred by Convection.

Heat is transferred through convection, which is the large-scale movement of molecules inside gases and liquids. Conduction is used to move heat from the object to the fluid initially, but fluid motion is responsible for the bulk of the heat transfer.

The transfer of heat between two bodies by currents of moving gas or fluid is known as convection on heat transfer. In free convection, air or water rises and is replaced by a cooler parcel of air or water as it moves away from the hot body.
