Dalton performed the cathode ray experiment.
Dalton performed the cathode ray experiment.
The cathode ray tube experiment came first, conducted by J.J. Thomson in the late 1890s, leading to the discovery of electrons. This was followed by Thomson's plum pudding model in 1904. The gold foil experiment, performed by Ernest Rutherford in 1909, led to the discovery of the nucleus.
Ernest Rutherford and his team conducted the gold foil experiment in 1909 at the University of Manchester. The experiment led to the discovery of the atomic nucleus and paved the way for our understanding of the structure of the atom.
They have gotten different results because they performed it from their knowledge.
J. J. ThomsonJ. J. Thomson did the cathode ray experiment where he discovered the existence of electrons.
J.J. Thomson performed his experiment to discover the existence of subatomic particles known as electrons. By studying the properties of cathode rays, he was able to determine the charge-to-mass ratio of electrons and propose the plum pudding model of the atom.
No. Quality and accuracy are incredibly important to scientists. If an experiment is not performed with quality and accuracy it is not valid. However, if accuracy is not especially important, possibly because the result will be the same, then it can be ignored.
In 1910, a physicist from New Zealand, Ernest Rutherford performed an experiment known as Rutherfordâ??s gold foil experiment. After Rutherford's theory, scientists began to consider that the atom is not a single particle, but it is made up of very smaller subatomic particles.
To clearly state why the experiment was performed
the experiment could be repeated with the same mice
It was a scientist named J. J. Thomson.
Rutherford performed a famous experiment at Manchester University in which he fired alpha particles (the nucleus of a helium atom) at a very thin piece of gold foil in order to probe the structure of the atom. Before this experiment the "pudding plumb" model of the atom was widely accepted; which was a rather large nucleus (the plumb) surrounded by a soup of electrons that where evenly distributed (the pudding). When Rutherford performed his experiment he discovered something quite different, which was that most of the atom is just empty space with a very small, but very dense, nucleus surrounded by tiny electrons (relative to the nucleus). This was the first experiment performed that reviled the structure of the atom as we know it today.
