Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Before the advent of the wave-particle duality theory proposed by Louis de Broglie, there was a sharp distinction between mater and waves.
However, Louis de Broglie introduced the idea that mater could display wave-like properties. Erwin Schrödinger developed this idea into what is now known as the wave mechanical model of the atom.
In this model, electrons are regarded as waves. We can only determine the probability of finding the electron within certain high probability regions within the atom called orbitals.
This idea has been the longest surviving atomic model and has greatly increased our understanding of atoms.
Answer:
Explanation:
Water is a conductor if it has solutes/ions dissolved in it(tapwater for example)
but pure water is not a good conductor of electricity.
Nails and keychains(made of metal) are conductors of electricity.

Problem
Which of the following chemical reactions is/are NOT possible according to Dalton's atomic theory?
a. reaction 1: CCl4 → CH4
b. reaction 2: N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
c. reaction 3: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O + Au
The answer is: D.unstable nuclei emitting high-energy particles as they formed more stable compositions.
Those high-energy particles are alpha particles
, beta particles
, gamma radiation.
For example, the decay chain of ²³⁸U is called the uranium series.
Decay start with U-238 and ends with Pb-206. There are several alpha and beta minus decays.
Antoine Henri Becquerel (1852 – 1908) was a French physicist and the first person to discover evidence of radioactivity.
Becquerel wrapped fluorescing crystal (uranium salt potassium uranyl sulfate) in a cloth, along with the photographic plate and a copper Maltese cross.
Several days later, he discovered that a image of the cross appeared on the plate.
The uranium salt was emitting radiation.
Because of this discovery, Becquerel won a Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, which he shared with Marie Curie and Pierre Curie.
