How did Thomson discover the electron?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]4 years ago
4 0

J. J. Thomson discovered electron by performing an experiment using cathode ray tubes. High voltage across is applied across two electrodes at that  causes a beam of particles to flow from the the negatively-charged electrode that is  cathode to  the positively-charged electrode that is anode. Properties of the particles, are tested using two oppositely-charged electric plates around the cathode ray. The cathode ray was deflected away from the negatively-charged electric plate and towards the positively-charged plate. This indicated that the cathode ray was composed of negatively-charged particles. And these negatively charged particles are called electrons.

Determine the number of atoms in 73.0 grams of calcium, Ca. (The
Elden [556K]
# of atoms per mol = Avogadro’s # (6.022 x 10^23)

Number of mols = mass of substance / molar mass

73 g / 40.08 g = 1.8 mols of Ca in 73 grams

1.8 mols x avagadro’s # = 1.1 x 10^24 atoms in 73 grams of Ca

What will happen to a liquid when heated
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

When we heat a liquid, what happens is that the molecules of the liquid will absorb heat and thus develop kinetic energy that will make them move faster.

Now, as the liquid begins to boil, bubbles of will be formed inside the liquid and then rises to the surface. Now, when the temperature of the reaches 100°C which is the boiling point of a liquid, the molecules at the top of the liquid begin to change to gaseous state and escape in form of vapour.
