This is known as Rutherford's gold foil experiment. To align with J.J Thompson's Plum Pudding Model, he expects a beam of alpha particles to just pass through the gold foil undisturbed. However, some were deflected at certain angles. Alpha particles are positive, so it would just go straight through the nucleus, but will deflect if it hits the electrons. <em>Therefore, the answer is: </em><span><em>Particles that struck the nucleus went straight.</em></span>

Answer is: Electron cloud allowed the particles to pass through.

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.

List the following elements from increasing electronegativity: boron, magnesium, calcium, chlorine, argon
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The list of elements from increasing electronegativity: Calcium <  magnesium < chlorine < argon < boron.

Explanation:

In the periodic table if you move from left to right there would be an increase in the electronegativity of the elements. If you move from the bottom to the top of the groups in the periodic table the electronegativity increases and if u move to the bottom from down its decreases.

Calcium is in the 2nd group below magnesium so calcium is the least electronegative among given elements then magnesium and then chlorine as it is top of magnesium then argon, as it is right to the chlorine, and boron has the most electronegativity as it is above rest of the elements.

When heating a sample to extreme heat over a flame, you will often use a crucible. Before starting the heating, you should locat
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The equipments you should have ready to start the crucible experiment includes: safety goggles, crucible with lid, crucible tong, ring support with clay triangle, Bunsen burner and heat resistant tile.

Explanation:

Crucible is an equipment in the laboratory which is suitable for heating a sample to extreme heat over a flame, Modern laboratory crucible are made up of graphite- based composite materials for achievement of higher performance. Because extreme heat is involved, you should locate the correct labware for the experiment, including the equipment to safely handle and support the crucible. These equipments includes:

--> Safety goggles: Because you will work with chemical it is advisable to use a safety goggles which protects the eyes from dangerous floating chemical aerosol.

--> crucible with lid: This is the main apparatus with the lid (cover) which is used to cover the crucible to prevent spilling of the boiling chemical.

--> Crucible tong: These are scissors like tools used to grasp hot crucible.

--> Ring support with clay triangle: the clay triangle is used to hold crucible when they are being heated. They usually sit on a ring stand.

--> Bunsen burner: Produces a single open gas flame which can be used for heating.

With the safety equipments listed above, you can carry out experiment using the crucible. These equipments helps minimise laboratory hazard that may occur should Incase it's not available.
