Rutherford’s atomic model By 1911 the components of the atom had been discovered. The atom consisted of subatomic particles called protons and electrons. However, it was not clear how these protons and electrons were arranged within the atom. J.J. Thomson suggested the"plum pudding" model. In this...
The Justification is the Atomic Bomb On August 6th, 1945 a very tragic incident happened in history. It seemed to be the start of a beautiful day in Japan but turned into a complete nightmare. The United States of America decided that they were going to join WWII when Japan intentionally attacked...
2-5: Rutherford's Atomic Model | | As discussed in the preceding page, we should consider that Thomson's raisin bread model (plum pudding model) was unsuccessful, because it could not explain the results of the alpha particle scattering experiment of Geiger and Marsden. Let us look back upon...
“Atomic Bomb” Many innocent lives were lost, as a result of the decision to use the atomic bomb. On August 6, 1945 the atomic bomb was dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. War isn’t a welcome sight in the eyes of people, but some had to live in it and survive. The United...

Many attempts were made in the early 1800s to organize the arrangement of elements. Mendeleev published the table based on the elements increasing atomic mass. When he published the table it was missing pieces and he claimed that they were yet to be found. How right was he? He predicted the table based...

that I arranged 60 known elements into a periodic table based on atomic mass. I published the “Principles of Chemistry” in 1869. My first periodic table was compiled on the basis of arranging elements in a rising order of their atomic weight and grouping them by the similarity of their properties. Now...
because it eventually stopped the war, made Japanese surrender and let everyone know how much power USA had at that time. On August 6, 1945 the first atomic bomb was dropped on Japanese city Hiroshima. Dropping the bomb was justified for many reasons. The primary reason, as many would know, was to stop...

Near the end of the1700s, two laws about chemical reactions emerged without referring to the belief of an atomic theory. The first was the law of conservation of mass, come up by Antoine Lavoisier in 1789, which states that the total mass in a chemical reaction remains constant. The second was the law...

In my opinion, the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, August 6th and 9th 1945, respectively, was an unnecessary act of aggression by the United States. Not only did the bomb kill thousands immediately, it killed more still through radiation sickness and mutations [3]. Catastrophic...
