Question

what did the Rutherford conclude about the structure of an atom from his experiment of scattering of alpha particles ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

From his experiment of scattering alpha particles, Ruther formulated the planetary model of the atom.

Explanation:

Following are the conclusions of Rutherford's atomic model:

1. An atom is empty in most regions.
2. Atom has a very small tiny region at the center with a positive charge.
3. All the mass of the atom is concentrated at the center of the atom called the nucleus.
4. Negatively charged particles called electrons are revolving around the nucleus.
5. The structure of an atom is similar to that of the structure of the solar system.

Answer 2

Answer:

The Rutherford's conclusion about the structure of an atom is given as, most of the space which is in the atom will be empty because most of the alpha-particles are passed within the gold foil without getting distracted.

Only few particles were distracted from their main path, indicating that the positive charges of an atom occupies very small space.

Explanation:

Rutherford's experiment shows that the nuclear atom is existed that is a small, positively-charged nucleus are bordered by the null space and then the layer of electrons will form the outside of an atom.
