Rutherford's Theory was that atom is mostly empty space, thus explaining the lack of deflection of most of the alpha particles, when he tested out the Gold-Foil Experiment. Rutherford predicted that all the alpha particles would go through the gold foil, however, when tested, some of the alpha particles reflected back, bounced off the gold foil at very large angles.
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.

im awesome!
What did rutherfords gold foil tell about the 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.
How did Rutherfords model of the atom different from thomsons?
The Rutherford model involve a positive nucleus separated from electrons.
What did Rutherfords gold foil experiment help him conclude?
That the mass of an atom is mostly located in a small nucleus.
what did bohrs model of the atom include that rutherfords model did not have?
Niels Bohr introduced the notion of electronic orbits.
What was significance of rutherfords experiment?
He discovered that the atom was mostly made up of empty space.
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.
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 ernest rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrate about atoms?
The conclusion was that an atom has a nucleus (center) with a positive charge.
How did Rutherfords model describe the atom?
Negative electrons orbiting a positive nucleus much like the planets orbit the sun.
What was ernest rutherfords greatest science achievement?
Opinions vary. The discovery of the atomic nucleus ("most of the atom is empty space")
