Assertion:Most of the α (alpha) particles passed through Gold foil in Rutherford’sexperiment. Reason: According to Rutherford, electrons revolve round the Nucleus. |
Answer» Rutherford's Model:• Rutherford's Atomic Model is based on α - ray scattering experiment. • The existence of Nucleus was DISCOVERED by Ernest Rutherford by the Experiment of α - ray Scattering. Hence this is also called as Nuclear Model. Postulats:• Most of the atom is Hallow. • All the positive charges and MASS of the atom is concentrated at the centre of the Spherical Atom which was known as Nucleus. • Size of Nucleus is one lakh part of size of an atom. • The Positive charge of the nucleus is counter balanced by the negatively charged electrons REVOLVING around the nucleus. • Since, This model is also known as Planetary or Solar Model. • With the help of Electrostatic Force the Electron and The Nucleus held together. • For concreteness, consider the passage of a high speed α particle through an atom having a positive central charge N e, and surrounded by a compensating charge of N electrons.
Drawbacks:• It cannot explain the line SPECTRUM of hydrogen • It is against to laws of electro dynamics. Hence this model cannot explain the stability of atom. Hope It Helps You ✌️ |
