Question

What is the conclusion drawn from the α-particle scattering experiment?

Answer 1

"Conclusions of the α-particle scattering experiment:

1. As the α-particles passed through the gold foil, indicating that most of the space inside an atom is empty.

2. Very few particles were deflected from their path, indicating that positive charge occupies a small space.

3. A very small fraction was deflected by large angles, indicating the nucleus to be very dense. "

Answer 2

Alpha particle scattering is done by Rutherford a chemist
