Mostly empty, In the common model of the atom, electrons are really tiny and they are relatively far from the nucleus which is small (but larger than electrons). In between there is nothing. To bring this distance into perspective if a nucleus is here the next electron would be a football field away.
That's actually a very good question. An atom is mostly empty space.
That the atom Mostly consisted of empty space.- apex
Empty space
Rutherford
It told them that the atom was mostly empty space.
Only a small percentage of alpha particles shot at the gold foil were deflected proving that except for the nucleus, the atom was mostly empty space.
he discovered the atom was mostly made up of empty space

Empty space
no it's mostly filled with empty space.

Yes, this is essentially true. Well over 99.9% of the mass of any atom is in the nucleus. The electrons in their orbitals around that nucleus actually determine the spacial volume that the atom occupies. And on an atomic scale, the distance from the nucleus to the outer boundaries of the electron cloud is enormous. The atom is mostly empty space, and, therefore, anything made up of atoms is mostly empty space.
its mostly empty space
in the nucleus :D the rest is mostly empty space
