Answer:
Gold.
Rutherford used gold foil for his alpha partical catenary experiment, only a few atoms thick.
The reason why he used gold foil is because gold is extremely malleable and it was easy to penetrate alpha particles through it.
He then said that most of the alpha rays went through the gold foil. thus concluding that most of the space inside the atom is empty.
