How did Rutherfords work help form the presentday model of the atom?
His experiment with the gold foil and the beam of positively charged particles proved that the nucleus of the atom is not solid. The beam past through the foil and bounced back. Rutherford's experiment contradicted Thomson's theory that an atom is solid.
In Rutherfords gold foil experiment some of the aimed at gold atoms bounced back suggesting that a solid mass was at the center of the atom?
In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the Alpha particles aimed at gold atoms bounced back, suggesting that a solid mass was at the center of the atom.They suggested that most of the mass of the atom is concentrated at the center and the center is positively charged.
In Rutherfords gold foil experiment shown in Figure 4-1 alpha particles that bounce straight back from the foil have struck in the gold atoms?
No, they struck the nucleus of the atom. Since the alpha particles are positively charged and nucleus is positively charged as well, they repelled each other and alpha particles are repelled back
In Rutherfords gold foil exepirement Rutherford concluded that the atom is mostly empty space with a small massive positivley charged center because?
In Rutherford's gold foil experiment Rutherford concluded that the atom is mostly empty space with a small massive positively charged center because most of the electrons passed through but a few were wildly deflected.

detect charged particles
What was ernest rutherfords's experiment?
he shot tiny alpha particles throug a piece of gold foil.
What were the surprising results of Rutherfords experiment?
The most surprising fact about Rutherford's experiment is that some of the atoms bounced backwards while others scattered.
How did Rutherfords gold foil experiment tell scientists about the atomic structure?
That atoms have a positively charged nucleus.

That the mass of an atom is mostly located in a small nucleus.
