2. In 1804, almost a century before the nucleus was discovered, the English scientist John Dalton provided evidence for the exis

tence of the atom. Dalton thought that atoms were the smallest particles of matter, which couldn't be divided into smaller particles. He modeled atoms with solid wooden balls. In 1897, another English scientist, named J. J. Thomson, discovered the electron. It was first subatomic particle to be identified. Because atoms are neutral in electric charge, Thomson assumed that atoms must also contain areas of positive charge to cancel out the negatively charged electrons. He thought that an atom was like a plum pudding, consisting mostly of positively charged matter with negative electrons scattered through it.
The nucleus of the atom was discovered next. It was discovered in 1911 by a scientist from New Zealand named Ernest Rutherford, who is pictured in Figure below. Through his clever research, Rutherford showed that the positive charge of an atom is confined to a tiny massive region at the center of the atom, rather than being spread evenly throughout the “pudding” of the atom as Thomson had suggested.

Question: Why did Thomson think that the atom also had to have a positive charge?

Question: What two particles are found in the nucleus?

3.Question: What particle did Rutherford discover in the nucleus?
4.Question: What did Rutherford predict was also in the nucleus?
5.Question: How did Rutherford describe the size of the nucleus?
6.Question: According to Rutherford, how was Thomson's model of the atom incorrect?
7.Question: How are all atoms of an element identical?

Ions are atoms that have gained or lost which subatomic particles?
Bad White [126]
Protons cannot be lost without the atoms becoming an entirely different element. Elements can infact have different numbers of neutrons within the same element, but neutrons are not related to the electrical charge. The answer is c. electrons.

Change 2.6 km/day to m/week
professor190 [17]
First, we need to transform km to meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

2.6 * 1000 = 2600

Now, there are 7 days in a week. 

Multiply.

2600 * 7 = 18,200

Final answer: 18,200 meters a week
