When atoms bombarded with alpha particles, only few in million suffer deflection, others pass out undeflected. This is because 1) the force of replusion on the moving alpha particle is small 2) the force of attraction of alpha particle to the oppositely charged electron is small 3) there is only one nucleus & large no of electron 4) the nucleus occupies much smaller volume compared to the volume of the atom.

Answer:
ok so the correct answer is no 4 that says; the nucleus occupies much smaller volume compared to the volume of atom.
Explanation:
alpha particles are comprised of two components two neutrons and two protons that are tightly packed together. so when atoms are bombarded with alpha particles some deflect because nucleus have a very small volume as compared to atom
