Ernest Rutherford was a chemist and a physicist that was born on August 30, 1871, in Spring Grove, New Zealand. He was a pioneer of nuclear physics and the first to split an atom. He was awarded a Nobel Prize in chemistry for his theory of the atomic structure. He discovered alpha and beta rays, that the atom could be split, and contributed to the Atomic Theory. He used the gold foil to see how to alpha and beta rays would bounce off off different atoms. Ernest was responsible for a remarkable…

received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922 for his work. Bohr was a physicist, philosopher, and a promoter of scientific research. Bohr’s proposal stated that the electron revolve in a stable orbit around the nucleus and that the energy levels in which the electrons are on are discrete. Bohr was the very first scientist to discover the electrons travel separately in energy levels. Bohr stated that an atom would not release radiation unless it was making a transition between states. An atom…

Describe the structure of an atom, including the subatomic particles, their charges, and their location. An atom is made up of subatomic particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons carry a positive charge found in the nucleus; neutrons carry no electrical charge and are also found in the nucleus. Electrons carry a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus. 2. Name five characteristics of water and relate them to the structure of water. Water has a high heat capacity Water…

work? The copper (Cu) particles pull in electrons more than the zinc (Zn) molecules. On the off chance that you put a portion of copper and a piece of zinc in contact with each other, numerous electrons go from the zinc to the copper. As they focus on the copper, the electrons repulse each other. At the point when the power of shock amongst electrons and the power of fascination of electrons to the copper progress toward becoming balanced, the stream of electrons stops. Sadly, it isn't…

We used the Bohr model of atomic structure to determine the orbit numbers that correspond with the spectrum emitted by the hydrogen atom. The Bohr model states that electrons will never be found in between states, but rather completely in one state or the other. We used this model to determine the initial n value at which the electron started at prior to dropping down to n = 2. An emission spectra, as it suggests, is when a substance emits radiation due to being heated or chemically…

Principles of the Octet Rule, Electronegativity, Polarity, Density, and their effect on H2O Aryeh L. Strauss Suny Rockland Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge (neutrons are neutral). The protons are in the nucleus of the atom and the electrons fill shells surrounding the nucleus. The shells closest to the nucleus have the lowest energy level and the shells furthest away have the highest energy levels. The…

We now use the method described in Section 2 to studythe effects of electron-phonon interaction on the electronic transport properties of (C60-1X1)2(X=N,B) molecule. We set tC-C=2.5 eV, αC-C=6.31 eV/Å, KC-C=49.7 eV/Å2 [35] tC-B=1.17 eV, αC-B=6.04 eV/Å, KC-B=51.1 eV/Å2,tC-N=1.05 eV, αC-N=6.13 eV/Å, and KC-N=49.6 eV/Å2 [36] and T=300 K in the calculations. The doped atoms are located at about the same distance from each lead and they are indicated with a different color from C atoms in each…

element to attract electrons to form bonds. Now atoms like to fulfil the octet rule of having a perfect 8 outer shell causing it to be stable. Now unfortunately not all elements have a full outer shell now elements on the left side of the periodic table contain less than half of electrons the required energy to gain electrons is much higher than comparison to trying the energy to lose an electron. So the elements on the left side when they form bonds they actually lose electrons. Now on the…

particles, called electrons, were suspended in a positively charged solution. Thomson’s theory was proven when he tested his hypothesis by what became known as the Cathode Ray Tube Experiment. During this experiment Thomson thought that electrons were evenly distributed throughout the atom. His discovery was based on the fact that the negatively charged cathode ray bent away from a positive charge. Thomson’s Cathode Ray Tube Experiment ended up in the discovery of the electron, the negatively…

and a relatively high melting point. Molecules and Sugar molecules are covalent compounds. A covalent compound is made when two or more nonmetal atoms bond. They bond by sharing valence electrons. The shared valence electrons is called a covalent bond. Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms begin sharing electrons. Lauric Acid and Stearic…
