Choose the correct statements: A. $\alpha$-particle close to the nucleus suffers large scattering. Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
A, B, C and E only A, C and E only A, C and D only B, D and E only |
A, C and D only |
The correct answer is Option (3) → A, C and D only (A) When $\alpha$-particle (Helium Nuclei) pass closed to positively charged nucleus, they experience a large coloumb repelsion, causing significant scattering. (C) James Chadwick discovered the neutron in 1932 through experiments involving beryllium and alpha particle. (D) During Gamma decay, a nucleus in excited state emits high energy photons ($\gamma$-rays) to release excess energy. |
