a.

Describe the "plum pudding" model of the atom developed by J. J. Thomson.

[2]
b.

List the three primary subatomic particles (electrons, neutrons, and protons) in chronological order of their discovery, from earliest to latest.

c.

The existence of isotopes explains why the relative atomic masses of many elements are not whole numbers.

Element Λ\LambdaΛ has two stable isotopes. The table below shows the mass numbers and percentage abundances of the isotopes of element Λ\LambdaΛ.

Mass numberPercentage abundance (%)
8572.2
8727.8

Calculate the relative atomic mass (ArA_rAr​) of element Λ\LambdaΛ. Give your answer to 1 decimal place.
