Which of the following statements about the atom did Rutherfords experiment support?
Rutherford's experiment supported the statement that the atom has a nucleus, which contains the majority of the atom's mass and is positively charged. It also indicated that the nucleus is small and dense compared to the overall size of the atom.
Rutherfords alpha scattering experiment showed that the charge on the nucleus of the atom must be?
Rutherford's alpha scattering experiment showed that the charge on the nucleus of the atom must be positive because the alpha particles were deflected by the concentrated positive charge in the nucleus.
What materials are needed for rutherfords gold foil experiment?
For Rutherford's gold foil experiment, you will need the following materials: thin gold foil, alpha particles, a source for the alpha particles, a fluorescent screen or detector to observe the scattered particles, and a vacuum chamber to prevent air molecules from interfering with the experiment.
What did rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrate?
Rutherford's gold foil experiment demonstrated the existence of the atomic nucleus and that it is densely packed in the center of the atom. This experiment led to the development of the nuclear model of the atom, which replaced the plum pudding model. It also showed that most of the atom is empty space.
Rutherfords gold foil experiment showed that the atomic nucleus is?
very small relative to size of whole atomextremely densehighly positively charged
What was significance of rutherfords experiment?
He discovered that the atom was mostly made up of empty space.
Was Rutherfords theory tested and published?
yes it was tested by the gold foil experiment
How does the design of Rutherfords experiment show what he was trying to find?
The presence of a tine nucleus
Howes the design of rutherfords experiment show what he was trying to find out?
The presence of a tine nucleus
How does the design of Rutherfords experiment show what he was trying to find out?
This classic diffraction experiment was conducted in 1911.
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.
What did Rutherfords gold foil experiment help him conclude?
That the mass of an atom is mostly located in a small nucleus.
What did ernest rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrate about atoms?
The conclusion was that an atom has a nucleus (center) with a positive charge.
In Rutherfords gold foil experiment particles in dense atomic nuclei caused some alpha particles to bounce straight back from the gold foil.?
positive
What is the significance of a variable during an experiment?
a variable can throw the whole experiment off and will have to be repeated.
What caused deflection in rutherfords gold foil experiment?
The positively charged nucleus caused deflection. Positive charge is because of protons inside nucleus.
