explain Rutherford Alpha ray scattering experiment give some postulate
Answers
Explanation:
Rutherford's scattering experiment:
Most of the space inside the atom is empty because most of the α-particles passed through the gold foil without getting deflected. Very few particles were deflected from their path, indicating that the positive charge of the atom occupies very little space.
POSTULATE.
The positive charge in an atom is not distributed uniformly and it is concentrated in a very small volume – Few α-particles when bombarded were deflected by the gold sheet. They were deflected minutely and at very small angles. Therefore he made the above conclusion.
Answer:
in rutherforss alpha scattering experiment rutherfordtook a bended metal befire whi was placed a gold foil.he bombarded alpha particle
RESULTS
nearly 99.9%particles passed ipundeviated
- some of the alpha particles deflected
- very few alpha particles returned back.
thereefor rutherford concluded :that
- most part pf an atom os empty
- positive charged particles are concentrated in a very small area and is heavy.
- number of protons=number of electrons in a nuetral atom
- e,ectron revolves in close circular orits around the nucleus
