The correct order of increasing number of alpha particles passing undeflected through the foils of Au. Ag, Cu and Al of 1000 atoms thickness each in a simulated alpha particle scattering experiment of Rutherford would be1. Au < Ag < Cu < Al 2. Al < Cu < Ag < Au3. Au < Cu < Al < Ag 4. Ag < Cu < Al < Au |

Answer» Correct option: 1. Au < Ag < Cu < Al Explanation: Since decreasing order of the size of atom or nucleus : Au > Ag > Cu > Al ∴ The correct order of increasing number of alpha particles passing undeflected through the foils of Au. Ag, Cu and Al of 1000 atoms thickness each in a simulated alpha particle scattering experiment of Rutherford would be Au < Ag < Cu < Al Reason : As the size of nucleus increases, the deflection of alpha particles also increases for same thickness of foil. |
