Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge{\fbox{\fbox{\bigstar{\mathfrak{\red{Answer}}}}}}$

Rutherford overturned Thomson's model in 1911 with his well-known gold foil experiment in which he demonstrated that the atom has a tiny and heavy nucleus. Rutherford designed an experiment to use the alpha particles emitted by a radioactive element as probes to the unseen world of atomic structure.

Answer 2

Rutherford's model shows that an atom is mostly empty space with electrons orbiting a fixed positively charged nucleus in set predictable paths.............. It was after this that Rutherford began developing his model of the atom...
