Which conclusion is based on the gold foil experiment and resulting model or the atom?
An atom is mainly empty space, and the nucleus has a positive charge.
What did Rutherford scattering experiment reveal about atoms?
The principal conclusion was that any chemical element has a positive charged central nucleus.
What nickname was given to rutherford's model of the atom?
The model atom Ernest Rutherford made is simply called the Rutherford Model. The experiment he conducted during his research is referred to as the Gold Foil Experiment. Rutherford is known as the father of nuclear physics.
What is the purpose of the Rutherford experiment?
he wanted to test Thomsons model maybe
What scientist said gold foil experiment which proved in early 20th century that atoms had a nucleus?
Ernest Rutherford, a New Zealand-born physicist, conducted the gold foil experiment in the early 20th century. This experiment involved shooting alpha particles at a thin gold foil and observing their scattering patterns. Rutherford's observations led to the conclusion that atoms have a dense, positively-charged nucleus at their center, which eventually formed the basis of the modern atomic model.

What do you do after you formed a hypothesis?
test your hypothesis.
What is the difference of a model or an experiment?
A model is to show something and it does not have a control group, like a experiment.
Is a homemade tornado a model or an experiment?
It is a model.
How is Thomson's model based on the experiment of passing alpha particles through the gold foil?
The results of this experiment led to the model of the atom called "Rutherford's model", rather than Thomson's model, which it basically disproved. Some of the alpha particles were deflected in ways that suggested to Rutherford that most of the atom's mass was concentrated in a positively charged "nucleus".
How are experimental probability and theoretical experiment alike?
They are both estimates of the probability of outcomes that are of interest. Experimental probabilities are derived by repeating the experiment a large number of times to arrive at these estimates whereas theoretical probabilities are estimates based on a mathematical model based on some assumptions.
Is a scientific model is a specific set of steps that a scientist folows to reach a conclusion?
A scientific model is a theoretical explanation of some phenomenon; the model is the conclusion, it is not the steps by which the conclusion was reached. The sequence of reasoning would just be called a scientific argument.
How did Rutherford developed the atom based on the results on his experiment?
Rutherford discovered the atomic nucleus, proposed a nuclear model of the atom also he isolated nitrogen.
Which model of the atom was supported by the gold foil experiment?
The Rutherford model, or the nuclear model
What visual model helps to understand the data collected during an experiment?
What visual model helps to understand the data collected during an experiment?
What is a good science experiment that you can do?
a good science experiment is a 3d plant cell model
