What would be the distance between nuclei of a bromine molecule and how did you find the answer?

228, and um...... enrich said that the chart showed the atomic radius, and if Bromine's atomic radius is 114, then if I added together, then it would be 228


Why was existence of a tiny massive and positively charged nucleus was deduced from the observations?

Why or how? The number of alpha particles deflected was small ... indicating the nucleus was small. The deflection of an even smaller amount of alpha particles almost straight back toward the emitting source proved that the nucleus was heavier than the alpha particle. According to previous atomic theory, the alpha particles should have all gone straight through the metal foil, with none deflected. Math calculations based on the deflection pattern showed that the nucleus was repelling the alpha particles, that they were not actually hitting and bouncing off the nucleus... this showed that the nucleus was positively charged.

What scientist showed that organisms not grow spontaneously in beef broth?

Louis Pasteur demonstrated through his experiments that organisms do not grow spontaneously in beef broth. By using swan-necked flasks that prevented airborne particles from contaminating the broth, Pasteur showed that the growth of microorganisms was due to the introduction of pre-existing germs. This experiment led to the rejection of spontaneous generation theory.
