Describe bohr model and how it differ from Rutherford model and how it is similar to Rutherford model?

The Bohr model of the atom describes electrons orbiting the nucleus in discrete energy levels, unlike the Rutherford model where electrons were expected to spiral into the nucleus. Both models incorporate the concept of a centralized positively charged nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons, though Bohr's model adds the idea of quantized energy levels to explain the stability of atoms.

Where was René Descartes from?

Rene Descartes was born on March 31, 1596 in La Heye en Touraine, France.

He died on February 11, 1650 (he was 53.)

The place Rene Descartes was born in (La Haye en Touraine, France) was renamed La Haye-Descartes in 1802 in his honor, and then it was renamed again to just Descartes in 1967.

What did the placard have on it that Rene Descartes was asked to read by Isaac Beeckman?

A challenge to solve a certain mathematical problem http://meta-religion.com/Philosophy/Biography/Rene_Descartes/rene_descartes.htm

Was there anything controversial about René Descartes?

Yes at his time, in the Renaissance, the Church was very powerful. He was provoking questioning about God and proving Methods of thinking and science. Math and Science were enemies of the Church and if one was an enemy of the Church of course you're going to be controversial. Hope this helps lol.

Meitnerium, named after Lise Meitner.

Why is Louis Pasteur important?

Louis Pasteur did many things but is most well-known for discovering how to pasteurise milk (which is where we get the word "pasteurise"). Bacteria in the milk are killed by heating to a specific temperature and then rapidly cooling it down.

Contributions of Francis Bacon and Rene descartes?

Rene Descartes and Francis Bacon are known for their philosophical contributions in the scientific revolution. Descartes contributions are in the areas of science and mathematics. He came up with the reasoning to the issues in these areas which are truth based and incontrovertible. While Francis Baconâ??s Scientific Method stressed on to replace the deductive reasoning by inductive reasoning.

What were the medical benefits that came from the Holocaust?

The Nazis did medical experiments on the Jews and used them as a way to learn different procedures and health issues. They learned different surgeries, information about hypothermia and starvation, and many more different medical discoveries in dental and other medical fields. One specific thing the Nazis experimented with was trying to change eye color. They were obsessed with making everyone have blue eyes. They also did things like sawing off the forearms and attaching the person's hands to their elbows. The Nazi doctors, later charged with premeditated murder, also came in contact with many different diseases and ailments that they were able to learn about.

How do scientists determine metal composition?

one method is to digest the metal using an acid and then use atomic absorption spectroscopy to determine which metal and how much of that metal is present in the solution. You can then work backwards to determine how much of a particular metal was in your sample (you need to know how much metal was used to make the solution).

Is Earl Kirby a Caribbean Scientist?

Earl Kirby is a veterinarian from St. Vincent. He was famous for his research in many scientific fields, such as veterinary medicine, geology, and vulcanology.

Which two elements on the periodic table would have been placed in different groups in Moseley's periodic table but not in Mendeleev's?

Let us be quite clear about this -- Mendeleev's periodic table (1871 version) was perfectly accurate.There were two or three anomalies in it. Tellurium was placed in a group with selenium and sulfur leaving iodine to go with bromine and chlorine. Mendeleev spent 20 years arguing (falsely) that the experimentally determined atomic weight of tellurium had to be wrong. Nickel and cobalt were assigned identical atomic weights to allow nickel to be put in a family with palladium and platinum, and cobalt with rhodium and iridium. There was evidence at the time that nickel was slightly lower on the atomic weight scale, but Mendeleev's assignment of atomic weights was within the experimental error. And finally argon and potassium were hugely out of order on the atomic weight scale, because it was very obvious that argon was a noble gas and potassium an alkali metal. But argon was only discovered in 1894, and Mendeleev was reluctant to even accept the noble gases as elements, let alone deal with that particular anomaly.


So the atomic number scale that was uncovered by Moseley's work cleared up these anomalies, but did not lead to any changes in the periodic table.

What scientific belief did Francis Bacon and René Descartes share?

That Nature could be explained through abstract reasoning and experimentation.
The scientific belief that Francis Bacon and Rene Descartes shared was their belief that most of the knowledge that came before was weak, sloppy, and in some cases very wrong. They both believed knowledge should be received by personal observation.

What is Planck's constant dimensionally equal to?

Planck's Constant is dimensionally equal to Angular Momentum. The unit is Joules second.

What mistakes did Eisenhower make?

It is hard to tell what mistakes Eisenhower has made as some of them can be subjective. However a commonly listed mistake was being unable to defused the Cold War. It should be noted that he was making good progress with it until an incident beyond his control involving a spy plane undid his work.

What sparked Nikola Tesla's interest into electricity?

During a brief spell studying electrical engineering and mathematics at the Austrian Polytechnic School in Graz, the precocious Tesla developed a passion for Alternating Current and Voltaire. But he never gained his degree, possibly being expelled for dissolute behaviour.

How is hydrogen use by scientists and engineers and artists and doctors?

Well hydrogen can be used for a bomb with a yield larger than a nuke, artists can use it to make bubble sculptures because the bubbles rise but stick together, people can use it for heating purposes (although Idk who would want that amount of energy) and lots of other stuff. Google is a great tool to fnd this out.

When C.V. Raman got Nobel Prize?

C.V. Raman was recipient of Nobel Prize for Physics in 1930.
