Questions and Answers

What kind of experiment did J.J. Thomson conduct to show the existence of electrons in an atom?

He observed the attraction between a glass rod and an inflated balloon.

He passed electricity through a gas at high pressure.

He rubbed two objects together to generate static electricity.

He observed streams of cathode rays in a discharge tube. (correct)

What do cathode rays consist of?

Negatively charged particles called electrons (correct)

Positively charged particles

Alpha particles

Neutrally charged particles

What is the significance of an electrically charged object being able to attract an uncharged object?

It indicates the presence of charged particles in matter at the atomic level. (correct)

It demonstrates the existence of neutrons in atoms.

It suggests that all matter is electrically neutral.

It proves that atoms are made up of positive and negative charges.
