How did thomson discovery change dalton's atomic theory?

The discovery of electron by j.j Thomson rejected the Dalton theory.

He stated that atom can be divided into its subatomic particles.

Explanation:

Dalton stated that atom is an indivisible particle. It can not be further subdivided.

The discovery of electron by j.j Thomson rejected the Dalton theory.

He stated that atom can be divided into its subatomic particles.

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e-

Mass= 9.10938356×10-31 Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.

Properties of cathode ray:

The ray is travel in straight line.

The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.

When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.

Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.

the answer for sodium is 0.186

the answer for rubidium is 0.251

1. they vary with a higher number because boiling is way hotter than melting
