Are atoms the smallest building blocks of a chemical element?
Because they also consist of electrons, protons, and neutrons. According to my research, this statement is still correct, at least in chemistry.
Scattering pattern Rutherford's scattering experiment?
Hey, I've been given an extra exercise in chemistry, but I'm stuck. Can anyone help me with the following problem? What scattering pattern was observed in Rutherford's scattering experiment and briefly explain what charge distribution in the atom can be derived from this observation. *The center of the stripe represents a deflection of 0° and…
What is correct here?
Can anyone tell me which of the three is correct?
Rutherford atomic model size comparison?
Hello, Can someone give me a second example and how to get there. Best regards
What is the Rutherford atomic model?
I'm writing a chemistry paper soon, and I have to describe the structure of atoms using the Rutherford atomic model and symbols. Could someone please explain this to me?
Why do positive alpha particles repel from the positive nucleus?
Hey guys, I'm currently learning Rutherford's scattering experiment, and in the experiment, positive alpha particles were emitted onto a gold foil. But why do the positive alpha particles repel each other from the positive nucleus? Since both are positive anyway.
Rutherford's method?
I have a chemistry exam on Friday and need to learn something about the Rutherford method. However, we haven't really written anything about it. Could someone perhaps explain this to me? So what is the Rutherford Method and what was discovered with it?
Chemistry atomic nucleus?
Hello, Why was it possible to prove with Rutherford's scattering experiment ( https://www.leifiphysik.de/atomphysik/atomaufbau/grundwissen/streuversuch-und-atommodell-von-rutherford ) that the atomic nucleus is heavy / has a large mass? Thanks!
Can anyone help me with physics?
Hey, I'm having trouble with the following task. I would be very grateful if someone with some insight could help me. Best regards
Rutherford scattering experiment?
Could someone please explain Rutherford's scattering experiment to me in simple terms? I don't have much prior knowledge of chemistry, so I just want to understand the general concept. I've looked at it several times, but somehow I don't quite understand how it works. Thanks in advance.
Alpha radiation and Thomson's atomic model?
The following: If an alpha particle hits gold foil, and the gold atoms in the gold foil are now assumed to be structured exactly as Thomson imagined, then almost all of the alpha particles should be deflected by the foil, right? Because, according to Thomson, the atom is composed of a positive volume, where electrons…
Why did Rutherford do the scattering experiment in the first place?
Why did he even think about examining the structure of atoms?
