In Thomson’s view, when the atom was heated, the electrons could vibrate about their equilibrium positions, thus producing electromagnetic radiation. Experiments of Geiger and Marsden Under the supervision of Rutherford, Geiger and Marsden conceived a new technique for investigating the structure of matter by scattering particles (He nuclei, q = +2e) from atoms. Plum-pudding model would predict only small deflections. (Ex. 4-1) Geiger showed that many particles were scattered from thin gold-leaf targets at backward angles greater than 90°.

  • A Computational Study of Ruthenium Metal Vinylidene Complexes: Novel Mechanisms and Catalysis
    A Computational Study of Ruthenium Metal Vinylidene Complexes: Novel Mechanisms and Catalysis David G. Johnson PhD University of York, Department of Chemistry September 2013 Scientist: How much time do we have professor? Professor Frink: Well according to my calculations, the robots won't go berserk for at least 24 hours. (The robots go berserk.) Professor Frink: Oh, I forgot to er, carry the one. - The Simpsons: Itchy and Scratchy land Abstract A theoretical investigation into several reactions is reported, centred around the chemistry, formation, and reactivity of ruthenium vinylidene complexes. The first reaction discussed involves the formation of a vinylidene ligand through non-innocent ligand-mediated alkyne- vinylidene tautomerization (via the LAPS mechanism), where the coordinated acetate group acts as a proton shuttle allowing rapid formation of vinylidene under mild conditions. The reaction of hydroxy-vinylidene complexes is also studied, where formation of a carbonyl complex and free ethene was shown to involve nucleophilic attack of the vinylidene Cα by an acetate ligand, which then fragments to form the coordinated carbonyl ligand. Several mechanisms are compared for this reaction, such as transesterification, and through allenylidene and cationic intermediates. The CO-LAPS mechanism is also examined, where differing reactivity is observed with the LAPS mechanism upon coordination of a carbonyl ligand to the metal centre. The system is investigated in terms of not only the differing outcomes to the LAPS-type mechanism, but also with respect to observed experimental Markovnikov and anti-Markovnikov selectivity, showing a good agreement with experiment. Finally pyridine-alkenylation to form 2-styrylpyridine through a half-sandwich ruthenium complex is also investigated.

  • Rutherford Scattering
    Rutherford Scattering Gavin Cheung F 09328173 November 15, 2010 Abstract A thin piece of gold foil is bombarded with alpha particles using an americium-241 source at several angles. The resulting scattering of the alpha particles is examined by finding the count rate at the angles. It was found that most of the particles were unscattered while a minority were scattered. It is predicted by Rutherford's model that the count rate is proportional to cosec4 of the angle and this relationship was verified. This disproves the plum-pudding model and supports Rutherford's theory. ? Introduction The idea of the atom has been around for millenia yet little could be said about it. By the end of the 19th Century, it became apparent that atoms were a useful tool that could be used to model phenomena in physics and chemistry. J. J. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model in 1904 where the atom is a mass of positive charge with small negatively charged electrons embedded in it like plums in a plum pudding. In 1909, Ernest Rutherford directed the famous experiment where a thin sheet of gold foil was bom- barded with alpha particles. The plum pudding model predicted that the alpha particles would be scattered by the gold atoms by small angles. However, it was found that most of the alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil with little scattering and a very small amount of the alpha particles were scattered by some large angle and some were even backscattered. The only explanation Rutherford had was that the plum pudding model could not be right.

  • Rutherford Scattering Simulation
    Name ______________________________ Date______________________ Rutherford Scattering Simulation Ernest Rutherford, (30 August 1871 – 19 October 1937) was a New Zealand-born British physicist and chemist who became known as the father of nuclear physics. He was awarded the noble prize in chemistry in 1908 for his investigations into the disintegration of the elements, and radioactive substances. Rutherford performed his most famous work after he became a Nobel laureate. In 1911, although he could not prove that it was positive or negative, he theorized that atoms have their charge in a very small nucleus and pioneered the Rutherford model of the atom. Through his discovery and interpretation of Rutherford scattering in his gold foil experiment he is widely credited with discovery of the the proton. Rutherford remains the only science Nobel Prize winner to have performed his most famous work after receiving the prize. The popular theory of atomic structure at the time of Rutherford's experiment was the "plum pudding model". This model was developed in 1904 by J. J. Thomson, the scientist who discovered the electron. This theory held that the negatively charged electrons in an atom were floating (sometimes moving) in a sea of positive charge. The gold foil experiment fires a series of positively charged alpha particles (helium nuclei) at a very thin sheet of gold foil. If Thomson's Plum Pudding model was to be accurate, the big alpha particles should have passed through the gold foil with only a few minor deflections. This is because the alpha particles are larger and heavier than electrons GOLD FOIL EXPERIMENT Expected results: alpha particles passing through the plum pudding model of the atom undisturbed.

It is this diversity that make ceramics so useful in advanced technology. The relatively open crystal structure of ceramics makes it pos- sible to impart functionalities via judicious doping. This work focuses on developing a generalized method for introducing magnetism into normally non-magnetic (diamagnetic) ceramics, using the example case of alumina (Al2O3).Here, substitutional doping of Al atoms with 3d transition metal in α- and θ-alumina was studied. Density functional theory was used to predict the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of doped alumina, as well as its stability. The results show that adding small concentrations of transition metals to alumina may increase magnetic activity by generating unpaired electrons whose net magnetic moments may couple with external magnetic fields. The dopant species and dopant coordination environment are the most important factors in determining the spin density distribution (localized or delocalized from the dopant atom) and net magnetic moment, which strongly direct the ability of the doped alumina to couple with an ex- ternal field.

  • Rutherford's Atom
    Rutherford’s Atom J.L. Heilbron A year and a half after he had published his celebrated paper on the nuclear model, Rutherford was busy planning an international meeting on atomic and molecular structure. This meeting, which took place in Brussels in 1913, was the second Solvay Council of Physics. As Richard Staley reminded us this morning, the first such council, whose centennial will be celebrated this October, brought together Europe’s leading physicists to discuss radiation and quanta. Their deliberations gave an important push to investigations of the use and meaning of quantization in physical theory, and, as Staley observed, can serve as a demarcator between classical and modern physics. 1. Rutherford’s atom Rutherford had a collaborator in organizing the meeting on atomic and molecular structure. This was Marie Curie. She did not think that much would come of their efforts. “Unfortunately [she wrote] we really know very little about the structure of matter and I doubt whether we will be much further advanced a year from now.” Apparently Mme Curie, although a leader of modern physics and the winner of two Nobel prizes, did not realize that her correspondent had revolutionized atomic physics the year before. She was by no means the only knowledgeable person who missed the significance of Rutherford’s nuclear model. No notice of it appeared in Nature, Revue scientifique, Physikalische Zeitschrift, or the proceedings of the Deutsche Naturforscherversammlung in any of the years 1911-13. J.J. Thomson did not mention it in the series of lectures on the structure of the atom he gave at the Royal Institution in 1913, nor did any of the distinguished atomic physicists whose popular lectures were published in 1912 under the promising title Les idées modernes sur la constitution de la matière.
