Question
______experimentally proved the existence of protons in the atoms was shown byA Neils Bohr B Chadwick C Madam Curie D Goldstein
Solution
The existence of protons in the atom was experimentally proved by D. Goldstein.
Here's a brief step-by-step explanation:
-
The concept of a positively charged particle in the atom was first proposed by Ernest Rutherford in 1917, but he didn't provide experimental proof.
-
The proton was first observed as a separate entity inside the nucleus of an atom by Eugene Goldstein in 1886.
-
Goldstein used a cathode ray tube and observed that besides the cathode rays moving towards the anode, there were rays moving in the opposite direction. He called these 'canal rays'.
-
These canal rays were positively charged radiations that ultimately led to the discovery of protons.
So, the correct answer is D. Goldstein.
