Vedclass · Answer

(C) The percentage of $\alpha$-particles deflected at angles greater than $50^o$ is $1\%$.Therefore,the percentage of $\alpha$-particles deflected at angles less than $50^o$ is $100\% - 1\% = 99\%$.One mole of $\alpha$-particles contains $6.022 	imes 10^{23}$ particles (Avogadro's number).The number of $\alpha$-particles that deflect at angles less than $50^o$ is calculated as:$	ext{Number} = \frac{99}{100} 	imes 6.022 	imes 10^{23}$$	ext{Number} = 0.99 	imes 6.022 	imes 10^{23}$$	ext{Number} = 5.96178 	imes 10^{23} \approx 5.96 	imes 10^{23}$ particles.
