This website can answer your question. It basically says that most of an atom's mass is found in it's nucleus. A nucleus contains the protons and the neutrons of an atom. Most of the atom, though, is made up of empty space. This site also describes Ernest Rutherford's gold foil experiment.

Who found the missing mass of the atom's nucleus?
Ernest Rutherford
Who suggested that most of the mass of atom is located in nuclear?
Rutherford
What did Rutherford discover that Thomas did not understand?
That most of an atom's mass was packed in a central nucleus
Where is the mass in atom?
Most of the mass in an atom is found in the nucleus, which contains the protons and neutrons.
What is the structure of the atom as proposed by Rutherford?
Before Rutherford, scientists assumed that the atom was a single particle. Rutherford presented his revolutionary, physical atomic model that suggested an atom consists of a central charge (the term 'nucleus' was coined after Rutherford's model was presented) that is surrounded, presumably, by a cloud of orbiting electrons. He showed that most of an atom's mass was located in the atom's nucleus. Rutherford's model was later improved upon by Niels Bohr, father of the Bohr-model. Rutherford made no connection to an element's atomic number and the number of protons within an atom's nucleus; however, his atomic model paved the way for the discovery of this correlation only a couple years after his model was designed.
Who found out that most of an atom's mass is in the nucleus?
Ernest Rutherford

Rutherford said that almost all the mass of an atom is located in its what?
Rutherford discovered in the early 1900s that most of an atom's mass is located in its nucleus.
Who said most of an atoms mass is in the nucleus in an atom?
Ernest Futher Ford
Who suggested that most of the mass of atom is located in nuclear?
Rutherford
When Rutherford found that some of the alpha particles fired at the gold foil were widely deflected he concluded that?
He concluded that most of the mass of the mass of the atom is concentrated at a single place at the centre of atom. He named this place as the nucleus.
What scientist demonstrated that the atom is mostly empty space with a small positively charged nucleus containing most of the mass of the atom?
Earnest Rutherford
How was it proved that the whole mass of an atom is located at its center?
the answer of this question is Rutherford experiment
What year did Rutherford say that most of atom's mass is in the nucleus?
1909-1911
What is the mass of an atom found by?
Mass of an atom = Mass of proton + Mass of neutron
Where is the mass found in an atom found?
Most of the mass of an atom is found in the nucleus which contains the protons and neutrons.
