Solution
The correct option is B electrons Rutherford did a famous gold foil experiment in which he used alpha ray.
In conclusion, he said that there is a very dense part in an atom (Nucleus) but couldn't explain much about the behaviour of electrons in the atom apart from stating that the electrons revolve around the nucleus.
