Question

Write two conclusions drawn by Rutherford from his ?-rays scattering experiment.

Answer 1

Dear student,

(I) Most of the space inside the molecule was vacant in light of the fact that a large portion of the α-particles went through the gold foil with no redirection.

(ii) Very couple of particles were redirected from their way, demonstrating that the positive charge consumed next to no space inside the molecule.

(iii) A little part of α-particles were redirected by 180 Degree showing that the positive charge and the mass of the gold molecule is gathered in a tiny volume inside the iota
