I think the correct answer is B. J.J. Thompson's Plum Pudding model had to be revised because atoms have protons and neutrons in the nucleus. He realized that aside from the electrons which are negatively charged, positive charge particles should be present to neutralize the charge of an atom.

What would be the effect on the nucleus of an atom if it emitted one alpha particle and one gamma ray

Oksana_A [137]

Unstable, radioactive atom emits alpha and gamma ray to transform into a stable atom.

Emitting an alpha particle, decreases the mass number by four and atomic number by two.
Emitting gamma ray reduces the excess energy of the radioactive atom.

Which of the following alcohols will give a positive chromic acid test?

Sindrei [870]

The answer is both B and C

positive chromic acid test is indicated by disappearance of orange colour from chromic ions and appearance of blue-green color from Chromium (iii) ion (reduction of chromium ion from CrO4 - to Cr3+)

positive chromic test indicated functional groups that can be oxidized.

cyclohexanol can be oxidized to become cyclohexanone

and pentan-3-ol can be oxidized to become pentan-3-one

hence both B and C will show positive chromic acid test

A) tert butanol although contains alcohol functional group, cannot be further oxidized as it is a tertiary alcohol
