They are considered the basic units of matter because all mass is made of atoms.
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.
If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, the process is endothermic.
The process requires heat in order to proceed. If ice stays in a very cold place, it will not melt unless it's heated. If ice is placed outside where it melts on its own, it gets the heat from the surroundings.
Answer:
Protons: 79
Electrons: 78
Explanation:
1. The number of protons is the atomic number (The atomic number for Au on the periodic table is 79)
2. Since the charge is +1 (positive) it means that there's one more proton than electrons. So, 79-1 = 78 electrons
You would expect snow to fail at the peak or the top because the weather is coldest there.
