A way to explain it is that back then all the continents were together but soon after drifted apart the were in the same place sort of put they drifted apart so that's sorta what happened. Hope that helps a little
Explanation:
Rutherford conducted an experiment in which he took a thin gold particle film on which he passes alpha- particles. He noticed that:
- Most of the alpha particles get through the film and can be detected by the detector.
- Around small portion of the alpha particle deflected at small angles.
- A very very few alpha particle (approximately 1 out of 1 million alpha particles) just retraced their path which means come back from the center.
He concluded that:
<u>Most of the space of the atom is empty and in the center of the atom , there is solid mass which is the cause of the alpha particles to come back. He gave the term nucleus to this solid mass.</u>
The first step in the two-step process of making a solution is the breakdown of the solute source into Atomic particles
for a solution to break the solute must be dissociated and break into the atomic particles
so correct option is D
