Hey mate here is ur answer.....
The Rutherford Gold Foil experimentshot minute particles at a thin sheet of gold. It was found that a small percentage of the particles were deflected, while a majority passed through the sheet. This caused Rutherford to conclude that the mass of an atom was concentrated at its center.
Conclusion of Rutherford's scattering experiment: Most of the space inside the atom is empty because most of the α-particles passed through the gold foil without getting deflected. Very few particles were deflected from their path, indicating that the positive charge of the atom occupies very little space.
HOPE IT HELPS ☺️

Heyy mate.. here's ur answer:)
Conclusion of Rutherford's scattering experiment:
-Most of the space inside the atom is empty because most of the α-particles passed through the gold foil without getting deflected.
-Very few particles were deflected from their path, indicating that the positive charge of the atom occupies very little space.
-A very small fraction of α-particles were deflected by very large angles, indicating that all the positive charge and mass of the gold atom were concentrated in a very small volume within the atom.
Plzzz mark it as BRAINLIEST.. if it helped uh;-
