Explanation:
Rutherford conducted an experiment in which he took a thin gold particle film on which he passes alpha- particles. He noticed that:
- Most of the alpha particles get through the film and can be detected by the detector.
- Around small portion of the alpha particle deflected at small angles.
- A very very few alpha particle (approximately 1 out of 1 million alpha particles) just retraced their path which means come back from the center.
He concluded that:
<u>Most of the space of the atom is empty and in the center of the atom , there is solid mass which is the cause of the alpha particles to come back. He gave the term nucleus to this solid mass.</u>

Answer:
11 electrons
Explanation:
The atomic number of sodium is 11. This tells us that sodium has 11 protons and because it is neutral it has 11 electrons. The mass number of an element tells us the number of protons AND neutrons in an atom (the two particles that have a measurable mass).
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
ΔQ = m c T ΔQ = heat required(J) m = mass (g) T = C° temp change
c = heat capacity in J/g-C
