Reflection, refracting, and the energy levels of molecular orbitals
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.
Answer:
five half lives
Explanation:
Half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of its initial value.
How many half lives it would take to reach 3.13% form 100% of it's initial concentration:
100% - 50% : First Half life
50% - 25%: Second Half life
25% - 12.5%: Third Half life
12.5% - 6.25%: Fourth Half life
6.25% - 3.125%: Fifth Half life
This means it would take five half lives to get to 3.125% (≈ 3.13%) of it's original concentration.
A) GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements
Explanation:
The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics is the use of GPS monitoring and satellite imagery of crustal movements.
GPS denotes Global Positioning Systems.
Satellite imagery is a recent advancement in the study of moving plates.
- The global positioning system uses the position of a system of satellites in space to delineate positions on earth.
- It works on the principles of triangulation and this helps to fix positions of objects on the earth surface.
- With this, the change in position of the plates can be recorded by known fixed positions of objects.
- Satellite imagery helps to map changes in terrain with time.
- Images can be correlated through time and the shift in terrains delineated.
