he tried the experiment with many metals but unsuccessful with that then he found that the gold has a very thin foil the Alpha particles are bombarded into the gold foil most of them get penetrate into it and very few jumbled and some of them make angle too Rutherford found that the gold was very radioactive and take the gold for his experiment
