How did Rutherford's experimental evidence lead to the development of a new atomic model?

Rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrated the existence of the nucleus and lead to the model of a positive nucleus surrounded by electrons. This model was further developed by Bohr and then by Schroedinger and others to become the quantum mechanical model we now have with electrons in orbitals around the central positively charged nucleus..

∙ 7y agoThe gold foil experiment made it clear that the positive charge of an atom was concentrated in a small space, and that it had a significant mass.

How did Rutherfords gold foil experiment tell scientists about the atomic structure?
That atoms have a positively charged nucleus.
Rutherfords gold foil experiment showed that the atomic nucleus is?
very small relative to size of whole atomextremely densehighly positively charged
Based on the data gathered in the Rutherfords scattering experiments the concept of atomic structure was modified Which of the following aspects of the structure of the atom were validated by these?
-The nuclear density being large -most of the atomic volume being empty space -the charge on the nucleus being positive -the existence of the atomic nucleus
Explain how the development of atomic models demonstrates the scientific process?
explain how the development of atomic models demonsrates the scientific prosess
What contribution to atomic theory was made by Geiger and Marsden in their gold foil experiment?
was wandering the smae thing but i think they just developed rutherfords theory by doing the gold foil experiment in depth
How did rutherfords's experimental evidence lead to the development of a atomic model?
Rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrated the existence of the nucleus and lead to the model of a positive nucleus surrounded by electrons. This model was further developed by Bohr and then by Schroedinger and others to become the quantum mechanical model we now have with electrons in orbitals around the central positively charged nucleus..
Who is credited with the first atomic theory based on expiramental evidence?
scientific method used in the development of atomic theory

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.
What is the rutherfords atomic model?
Because Joel is the man
How did Neils Bohr revise Rutherfords atomic model?
no
Bohr found experimental evidence for his atomic model by studying?
The electron cloud
What were Lord Ernest Rutherfords Accomplishments?
he found faults in the atomic theory of jj Thompson
How did Rutherfords gold foil experiment tell scientists about the atomic structure?
That atoms have a positively charged nucleus.
How was Thomsons atomic theory different from Rutherfords atomic theory?
According to Thomson's atomic theory, the mass of an atom was special evenly throughout its volume. Errest Rutherford's experiment proved this wrong.
What was ernest rutherfords greatest science achievement?
Opinions vary. The discovery of the atomic nucleus ("most of the atom is empty space")
Who atomic model determined that an atoms positive charge is concentrated in the atoms center?
This is the Rutherford model.
