After Rutherford bombarded gold foil with alpha particles, he concluded that the volume of an atom is mostly empty space. Which

observation led Rutherford to this conclusion?
1. Some of the alpha particles were deflected 180 degrees
2. The paths of deflected alpha particles were hyperbolic.
3. Many alpha particles were absorbed by gold nuclei.
4. Most of the alpha particles were not deflected.

Answer: 4. Most of the alpha particles were not deflected.

Explanation:

Rutherford gave an experiment known as gold foil experiment.

In his experiment, he took a gold foil and bombarded it with alpha particles (carrying positive charge). He thought that the particles will pass straight through the foil, but to his surprise, many of them passed through, some of them deflected their path and a few of them bounced back.

Due to the presence of positive charge on the alpha particles they must be deflected, but as there exists a large empty space as most of the alpha particles pass through without deflection.

Because if it doesn't deflect in the middle it means that there has to be some space for the alpha particles to go through it.

How is a suspension different from a colloid?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Colloidal:

  • Colloid consist of the particles having size between 1 - 1000 nm i.e, 0.001- 1μm.  
  • The particles in colloid can not be seen through naked eye.
  • It is homogeneous.
  • We can not separate the colloidal through the filtration. The pore size of filter paper is 2μm. However it can be separated through the ultra filtration. In ultra filtration the pore size is reduced by soaking the filter paper in gelatin and then in formaldehyde. This is only in case of when solid colloidal is present, if colloid is liquid , there is no solid particles present and ultra filtration can not be used in this case.

Suspension:

  • The particle size in suspension is greater than 1000 nm.
  • These particles can seen through naked eye.
  • It is heterogeneous.  
  • The particles in suspension can be separated through the filtration.
