Problem 23

In what way did Rutherford鈥檚 gold-foil scattering experiment show that the atomic nucleus is both small and very massive?

Problem 24

How does Rutherford鈥檚 model of the atom account for the back-scattering of alpha particles directed at the gold foil?

Problem 25

At the time of Rutherford鈥檚 gold-foil experiment, scientists knew that negatively charged electrons exist within the atom, but they did not know where the positive charge resides. What information about the positive charge was provided by Rutherford鈥檚 experiment?

Problem 26

Why are spectral lines often referred to as 鈥渁tomic fingerprints鈥?

Problem 27

When an electron makes a transition from its first quantum level to ground level, the energy difference is carried by the emitted photon. In comparison, how much energy is needed to return an electron at ground level to the first quantum level?

Problem 34

Does the de Broglie model assert that an electron must be moving in order to have wave properties? Defend your answer.

Problem 37

Can a particle be diffracted? Can it exhibit interference?

Problem 39

If Planck鈥檚 constant, \(h\), were larger, would atoms be larger also? Defend your answer.

Problem 41

When only a few photons are observed, classical physics fails. When many are observed, classical physics is valid. Which of these two facts is consistent with the correspondence principle?

Problem 43

What does Bohr鈥檚 correspondence principle say about quantum mechanics versus classical mechanics?
