• A. Unlike cathode rays, mass of positively charged particles depends upon the nature of gas present in the cathode ray tube
• B. The charge to mass ratio of these particles depends on the gas from which these originate
• C. The behaviour of these particles in electric or magnetic field is same as that observed for electron or cathode rays
• D. Some of the positively charged particles carry a multiple of the fundamental unit of fundamental charge

Answer 1
