The diagram below shows two models of the atom. thompson's and rutherford's model of atoms the models can be best used to (2 points) explain that all atomic theories are incorrect prove that all theories have the same meaning show that atomic theories cannot change over time demonstrate the evolution in the structure of the atom

Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

J.J. Thompson had proposed plum pudding model in which he stated that an atom consists of positive and negative charges.

Whereas Rutherford said that an atom contains protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons (have positive charge) and neutrons (have no charge)  reside inside the nucleus of the atom when mass of an atom is concentrated. And, electrons which have negative charge revolve around the nucleus of the atom.

Hence, the given models can be best used to demonstrate the evolution in the structure of the atom.

atomic number of carbon is 6

electronic configuration of carbon is 1s²2s²2p²

orbital diagram of carbon is as shown here in the image.
