Yes - it showed that atoms have a small but massive nucleus, with a positive charge - i.e., what we today know as protons. (Neutrons were discovered later.)
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.

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.
The gold foil experiment supported the statement that atoms have a small, positively charged nucleus at their center. This overturned the previous "plum pudding" model of the atom, where positive charge was thought to be spread throughout the atom.
Ernest Rutherford's gold foil experiment demonstrated that atoms have a small, dense nucleus at their center that contains positively charged protons. This nucleus is surrounded by mostly empty space where negatively charged electrons are found orbiting. This experiment led to the development of the nuclear model of the atom.
yes it was tested by the gold foil experiment
he shot tiny alpha particles throug a piece of gold foil.
That the mass of an atom is mostly located in a small nucleus.
The conclusion was that an atom has a nucleus (center) with a positive charge.

to find out if all element has the same mass or can pass through the tin foil in other words not all passed through
The positively charged nucleus caused deflection. Positive charge is because of protons inside nucleus.

A zinc sulfide coated screen surrounding the gold foil produced a flash of light whenever it was struck by an alpha particle. By noting where the flash occurred, the scientists could determine if the atoms in the gold foil deflected the alpha particles.
