Answer:
a. Plum pudding model
Explanation:
The plum pudding model of the atom was proposed by J.J. Thomson. It was the model he derived from his experiment on the gas discharge tube.
J.J Thomson was the first person to discover electrons which he called cathode rays because in the discharge tube, they emanate from the cathode.
- This led him to suggest the plum pudding model of the atom.
- The model reflects electrons being surrounded by a volume of negative charges.
Answer;
(3) Substance A is an element and substance Z is a compound.
Explanation;
-A compound is a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together, such as water, carbon dioxide, methane, etc while an element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atoms, such includes, oxygen, potassium, hydrogen, carbon, etc.
- Compounds can be broken
down or decomposed into simpler substances: elements cannot be broken down chemically into simpler substances .
Oil makes it impossible for fur-bearing mammals to insulate<span>, this leaves them unprotected from the harsh elements out in the water. Birds and mammals will die from hypothermia without the ability to insulate from the freezing water.
I hope this helps you! :-)</span>

Correct Answer is : 54 131Xe
Reason:
Emission of beta particle from radioactive material increases atomic number by one, but atomic mass number donot change.In present case, the reactant is 53 131 I. When, iodine emits beta particle i.e. electron, it atomic number increases by one. Hence, it gets converted into Xe. Atomic number of Xenon is 54.
