Ques. 1AIPMT 2003

J.J. Thomson's cathode-ray tube experiment demonstrated that

  1. cathode rays are streams of negatively charged ions
  2. all the mass of an atom is essentially in the nucleus
  3. the e/m of electrons is much greater than the e/m of protons
  4. the e/m ratio of the cathode-ray particles changes when a different gas is placed in the discharge tube

Answer

(3) the e/m of electrons is much greater than the e/m of protons

Solution

Thomson deflected cathode rays in crossed electric and magnetic fields and measured their specific charge:

em 1.76 1011 C kg-1

This is about 1836 times the e/m of the hydrogen ion (proton), 9.6 107 C kg-1.

⇒ The e/m of electrons is much greater than that of protons.

(1) is wrong: cathode rays are electrons, not ions. (2) is the result of Rutherford's α-scattering experiment. (4) is wrong: e/m was found to be the same whatever gas or cathode material was used.

Answer: (3)
