How did rutherford contribute to the atomic theory?

History

stira [4]3 years ago
4 0
Ernest Rutherford contributed to the atomic theory by discovering that the atom is mostly empty space.

He can to that conclusion because he fired alpha particles at gold foil, which was so thin that it was only around .00004 cm thick, and while almost all shot straight through, some actually bounced back!

He likened it to shooting a 15-inch round(bullet) at tissue paper, only to have it bounce right back at you! Based on this, he theorized that the atom is mostly empty, which is why a majority of the particles passed right through, but in the very center of the atom there is a super-dense structure called a nucleus that held a majority of the atom's mass. This super-dense mass would be more than massive enough to deflect the particle, should they collide.

German AmericansJewish AmericansAsian AmericansHispanic AmericansWomenDissentersHow was this group treated by the U.S government
sertanlavr [38]

Explanation:

German Americans and Asian Americans during World War-I were seen as inferior citizens. There are reports that the names of streets in German were changed because of discrimination against them, fellow Americans were biased in their dealings with them. As a result of all this unfair treatment, Germans who live in the United States are said to have hidden their German identities.

Jewish Americans during World War-I experience discrimination also. In fact, the KKK, a racist organization played a major role in their unfair treatment. They decided to fight the discrimination they faced, there are also reports that they engaged in fundraising activities to support those affected by the war.

Hispanic Americans during World War-I were between the tensions that existed between the United States and Mexico at the time. Despite such immense opposition and unfair treatment in terms of labor wages, they still migrated to the United States, which lead to an increase in the Hispanic population in the country.

Similar mistreatment occurred against Women Dissenters, as ongoing efforts were made to silenced them. Still, they continued in their fight.
