In the original mixtures, test tube 1 contained magnesium and a zinc compound, and test tube 2 contained zinc and a magnesium compound. A similar relationship exists between test tubes 3 and 4 and between test tubes 5
and 6. Compare what took place in each corresponding pair of test tubes. What general conclusion can you draw?

Imagine if during the cathode ray experiment, the size of the particles of the ray was the same as the size of the atom forming the cathode. which other model or scientific observation would have also been supported? 1. this would support dalton's postulates that proposed the atoms are indivisible because no small particles are involved. 2. this would support bohr's prediction about electrons moving in orbits having specific energy. 3. this would support bohr's prediction about electrons being randomly scattered around the nucleus in the atom. 4. this would support dalton's postulates that proposed that atoms combine in fixed whole number ratios to form compounds.
