Rutherford's model of the atom consisted of a positively charged center, known as NUCLEUS, which also contained most of the atom's mass. Around the nucleus orbited the negatively charged electrons.

∙ 11y agoHe proposed that the atom is mostly empty space, thus explaining the lack of deflection of most of the alpha particles. He concluded that all the positive charge and almost all of the mass are concentrated in a small region that has enough positive charge to account for the great deflection of some alpha particles. He called this region the Nucleus.

in outside already they around a positive

∙ 7y agoAn atomic model of Rutherford doesn't exist; Rutherford discovered the proton and supposed the existence of neutron, facts that led to an evolution of the atomic model.

Was Rutherfords model of an atom incorrect or incomplete?
incorrect
What did Ernest Rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrate about an atom?
The conclusion was that an atom has a nucleus (center) with a positive charge.
Rutherfords alpha scattering experiment showed that the charge on the nucleus of the atom must be?
positive
Which of the following statements about the atom did Rutherfords experiment support?
What are the 'statements' and which 'experiment' is meant to be 'supported' in this question.
What did rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrate?
It demonstrated that there is positively charged nucleus and the atom is mostly empty spaced.
How did Rutherfords model describe the atom?
Negative electrons orbiting a positive nucleus much like the planets orbit the sun.
Was Rutherfords model of an atom incorrect or incomplete?
incorrect
When was rutherfords model created?
Rutherfords Model is Rutherfords Model... thats it, its just a model.. go look it up on google images im sure you will figure it out by then.
what did bohrs model of the atom include that rutherfords model did not have?
Niels Bohr introduced the notion of electronic orbits.
How did Rutherfords model of the atom different from thomsons?
The Rutherford model involve a positive nucleus separated from electrons.
How did Rutherfords work help form the present day model of a atom?
The atomic model of Rutherford was a step in the historical development of the today concept of an atom.
What describes Rutherfords model of an atom?
Rutherford imagined the atom to be a particle with a thickly concentrated positive nucleus and electrons moving around it.
What is the name of the modern atom model?
The Bohr Model is the modern name used by scientist for a model of an atom, which is often referred to as the Rutherford-Bohr model due to the fact that Neils Bohr just improved Ernest Rutherfords model.
How did Rutherfords findings change Thomsons plum pudding model?
Rutherford supposed that the atom had a central positive nucleus surrounded by negative electrons.
Describe the planetary model of an atom?
The planetary model of an atom is simple. The nucleus is the planet and the electrons are the moons in the model.
Rutherfords conclusion of the structure of an atom?
A short answer for the Rutherford atomic model: the atom is composed from a central part - a nucleus, positively charged, surrounded by electrons - very small negative charged particles.
What contribution to atomic theory resulted from Albert Einsteins work?
a new model of the atom that describe electrons as being in a cloud
