Test Questions Unit 3:
Describe two similarities and two differences between the Thomson model of the atom and the model described by Rutherford. How does the shift from Thomson to Rutherford illustrate the theme of "Right and Wrong"?(6 pts)
Experiments have been important in the development of the modern concept of the atom. Pick one such experiment and answer the following questions: (8 pts)a. What was the objective of the experiment? b. How was the experiment conducted (i.e. what was done)?
