When alpha particles are used to bombard gold foil, most of the alpha particles pass through undeflected. This result of the experiment indicates that most of the volume of a gold atom consists of unoccupied spaces. This was an experiment done by Ernest Rutherford which allowed him to verify the presence of the a small region positive charge in an atom which is called as the nucleus of the atom. Most of the alpha particles pass through the foil while a certain amount were deflected. Those that pass through confirmed that there is a large area that is unoccupied in an atom.
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Data:</u>
a) V₁ = 38.2 liter
b) P₁ = 91 psi
c) V₂ = 77.4 liter
d) P₂ = ?
<u>2) Formula:</u>
According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the pressure and volume of a fixed amount of gas are inversely related:
- PV = constant ⇒P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
<u>3) Solution:</u>
- Solve for the unknown: P₂ = P₁V₁ /v₂
- Substitute the values: V₂ = 91 psi × 38.2 liter / 77.4 liter = 44.9 9si ≈ 45 psi.
The answer would be c. Have you ever seen gravy? It always separates and leaves different layers.
Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes helped him to discover the electron (which Dalton did not know about). Dalton thought that atoms were indivisible particles, and Thomson's discovery of the electron proved the existence of subatomic particles.
Shielding effect being attendency of the inner electrons to repel the outermost electrons, an increase in shielding effect increases atomic radius and decrease reduces the atomic radius
