Rutherford was one of the early scientists who worked on the atomic model. Before his discovery of the nucleus, the widely accepted theory was J.J Thomson's Plum Pudding Model. In this model, all the protons, electrons and neutrons are in the nucleus. But the electrons are more in number such that the electrons act as the 'pudding' and the proton and nucleus the 'plum'. This was Rutherford's hypothesis in his gold foil experiment. In order to test the Plum Pudding model, he hypothesized that when a beam of light is aimed at the atom, it would not diffract because the charges in the nucleus are well-distributed. However, his experiment disproved Thomson's model. Some light indeed passed through but a few was diffracted back to the source. He concluded that this was because there is a dense mass inside the atom called nucleus. Thus, from there on, he proposed the model that the electrons are orbiting around the nucleus.
1a) anion and S-2
1b) cation and Al+3
1c) anion and N-3
1d) cation and Ca+2
It's sp3d according to the lewis dot structure (four bonds, one lone pair).
The statement which is true is
metals lose electrons to become cations
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
- metals tends to loss electrons to attain noble gas electrons configuration.
- When metal loses electrons they form a positive charged ions.
- The positively charged ion is known as cations.
- for example sodium metal (Na) loses 1 electron to form a cation with a charge of positive 1 ( Na^+)
Answer:
$1246.90
Explanation:
Since the bike lost 
% of it's value and it now currently at $
, we have to do 20% * $1039 to find the amount of money lost. 20%*1039=207.8. We have to add it up to find the original value so 1039+207.8=$1246.8
