B. It confirmed that atoms are very tiny
C. it exposed fraudulent conducted by unqualified scientist
D. It proved that atoms are easier to see than once believed.
My answer is B
Can you check my answer @Ms.Sue

To confirm your answer, let's go through the options and reasoning behind them.
A. It disapproved the earlier idea of an invisible atom.
This statement is not correct. The discovery of the electron did not disprove the earlier idea of an invisible atom. In fact, the existence of the electron provided evidence for the existence of atoms.
B. It confirmed that atoms are very tiny.
This statement is correct. The discovery of the electron confirmed that atoms are very tiny. The electron, which is negatively charged and found outside the nucleus, was found to be a fundamental particle of the atom.
C. It exposed fraudulent conduct by unqualified scientists.
There is no evidence to suggest that the discovery of the electron exposed fraudulent conduct by unqualified scientists. The discovery of the electron was a significant scientific breakthrough and is considered a legitimate and well-documented discovery.
D. It proved that atoms are easier to see than once believed.
This statement is not correct. The electron is not visible by conventional means, and its discovery did not prove that atoms are easier to see.
Based on the options provided, it is clear that option B: "It confirmed that atoms are very tiny" is the correct answer. The discovery of the electron provided evidence that atoms are composed of smaller particles and that they are indeed very tiny.
