In Rutherford's Gold foil experiment, were the alpha particles directed to different areas of the gold foil or only the same spo

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In the Rutherford experiment, alpha particles were directed at the same spot on a thin gold foil.

As the alpha particles hit the foil, most of the alpha particles went through the foil. In Rutherford's interpretation, most of the particles went through because the atom consisted largely of empty space.

However, some of the alpha particles were deflected through large angles, in Rutherford's interpretation, the deflected alpha particles had hit the dense positive core of the atom which he called the nucleus.

This accounted for their scattering through large angles throughout the foil in all directions.

An element with the valence electron configuration 4s24p4 would form a monatomic ion with a charge of fill in the blank 5 . In o
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Charge= -2.

Gains two electron into the 4p^4 to become 4p^6.

Explanation:

The element in the periodic table/chart that matches with the valence electron configuration is Selenium with full electron configuration of [Ar] 3d^10 4s^2 4P^4 which is a non-metal that is found in group 4 of the periodic table/chart.

Selenium can receive 2 more electrons on the 4p^4 to give a -2(minus 2) ion that is Se^2-.

Selenium can also loose 2 electron from 4s^2 to give a +2 ion that is Se^2+.

Selenium can also loose 2 electrons from 4s^2 and 2 electrons from 4p^4 to form Se^4+.

Selenium can also loose 2 electrons from 4s^2 and 4 electrons from 4p^4 to form Se^6+.

Thus, in order to form a monatomic ion with a charge(we will be making use of the most stable one). Thus, it will gain two more electron since this is easier to become 4s^2 4p^6.
