9th Class Science Structure of the Atom

  • question_answer 77)
      In the gold foil experiment of Geiger and Marsden, that paved the way for Rutherford's model of an atom,   ~ 1.00% of the α - particles were found to deflect at angles > 50°. If one mole of particles were bombarded on the gold foil, compute the number of a-particles that would deflect at angles less than 50°.

    Answer:

      Total number of α - particles used for bombardment = 1 mole 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 particles. Number of a-particles deflected at angles greater than 50° (> 50° ) = 1%                                         (Given) Number of particles deflected at the angles less than 50° = 100 - 1 = 99% Actual number of α - particles deflected at the angles less than
