Want this question answered?
In 1910, a physicist from New Zealand, Ernest Rutherford performed an experiment known as Rutherfordâ??s gold foil experiment. After Rutherford's theory, scientists began to consider that the atom is not a single particle, but it is made up of very smaller subatomic particles.
they could discover a new atom and it would change
power && qold .?
It told them that the atom was mostly empty space.
Q 3. How did the scientists explain the relationship between the colors observed and the structure of the atom?
The gold-foil experiment led scientists to conclude that an atom's volume is mainly unoccupied.
they might actually see an atom.
why are you searching it up? you should have known
In 1910, a physicist from New Zealand, Ernest Rutherford performed an experiment known as Rutherfordâ??s gold foil experiment. After Rutherford's theory, scientists began to consider that the atom is not a single particle, but it is made up of very smaller subatomic particles.
Rutherford shot radiation at a foil of metal, only to find that it went straight through most of the time. This lead him to theorize that the atom consisted of a dense nucleus that had most of the mass, but was much smaller than the atom itself. This hypothesis turned out to be correct.
After that famous experiment, it was realized that atoms were mostly empty space.
He discovered that the Atom is made of smaller particles called electrons.
Scientists have split the atom.
Thomson discovered that the atom contained smaller particles called electrons
thomas discovered that the atom contained smaller particals called electrons
The nuclear atom was discovered by Ernest Rutherford. He did it with a gold foil experiment.
Rutherford used the gold foil experiment to figure out that an atom had charged particles in the nucleus
