Assertion : In Rutherford's alpha -particle scattering experiment, most of the alpha -particles were deflected by nearly 180^(@) . Reason : The positive charge of the atom is spread throughout the atom that repelled and deflected the positively charged alpha -particles.

An alpha particle of energy 4MeV is scattered through an angle of 180^(@) by a gold foil (Z=79). Calculate the maximum volume in which positive charge of the atom is likely to be concetrated?

Suppose we have one iron nucleus. We know that the entire positive charge of the atom is carried by the nucleus. In order to understand the electric field of nucleus, it is suggested that we shall assume that the entire positive charge of nucleus is uniformly distributed over the volume of the nucleus. Iron is a conductor, and we know that in any conductor charge cannot be distributed over the volume. Is it fine to assume volume distribution of charge inside the nucleus?

Statement -I : When projected to words towards as atoms having heavy nucleus , most of the alpha particle will pass through it without appereciable decviation. ltbr. Statement -II : All the positive charge of atom is located in a small dense located at center.

A coording to Thomson model, the entire mass and positive charge of an atom are distributed.............in a..............of radius.......... .

Statement -1 : Large angle scattering of alpha particles led to the discovery of atomic nucleus. Statement -2 : Entire positive charge of atom is concentrated in the central core.

alpha- particles of 6 MeV energy is scattered back form a silver foil. Calculate the maximum volume in which the entire positive charge fo the atom is supposed to be concentrated. ( Z for silver = 47 )

Rutherford's alpha -particle scattering experiment showed that (i) electrons have negative charge. (ii) the mass and positive charge of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus. (iii) neutron exists in the nucleus. (iv) most of the space in atom is empty. Which of the above statements are correct ?
