In this chapter, we will understand what is mass number and how to find it with the help of solved examples. You have studied that…
The number of protons present in the nucleus of each atom of an element is called atomic number of an element. Generally, it is represented…
In this chapter, we will understand the discovery of neutron discovered by James Chadwick in 1932. Up to 1932, it was considered that an atom…
On the basis of the observations and conclusions of alpha particles scattering experiment, Rutherford proposed his nuclear model of atom in 1912. This atomic model…
In this chapter, we will understand Rutherford’s scattering experiment and its observations and conclusions. In order to understand the arrangement of charged particles like electrons…
In this chapter, you will understand Thomson’s atomic model, also known as plum pudding model of atom and its drawbacks or limitations. After the discovery…
In this chapter, we will explore the discovery of proton. As we know, atoms are the fundamental building blocks of matter, composed of three main…

In this chapter, we will understand the what is proton as well as its mass and charge. We know that an atom is electrically neutral.…
In 1897, the experiment of J. J. Thomson precisely determined the charge to mass (e/m) ratio for an electron. In 1909, Robert A Millikan conducted…
The charge to mass ratio of an electron, often denoted as (e/me), is a fundamental physical constant that has significant implications for theories of an…
