The first model of an atom was proposed by

Carbocation is a group of atoms that contains a carbon atom bearing positive charge and has only six electrons on its valence shell

Compare Rutherford and Thomson's models of the atom on the following basis: • Where is the positive charge placed? • How are the electrons placed? • Are they stationary inside the atom or moving?

Moseley calculated the number of positive charges in the atoms by analysing their____.

Which of the following is defined as the number of positive charges in the atom of element ?

Choose the correct statement (s) (i) The energy of an electron in an atom is always negative, because it is negatively charged. (ii) The charge of an electron in an atom is positive (iii) When an electron is at an infinite distance from the nucleus so that there is no electrical interaction , then orbitarily the energy of electron is taken to be zero (iv) As the electron moves closer to the nucleus, energy is released and so its energy becomes less than zero i.e., negative.
