most of the particles went through the gold foil, but only a few bounced back.

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.
In the gold foil experiment by Rutherford, most alpha particles passed through the gold foil, indicating that atoms are mostly empty space. The few particles that were deflected showed that the positive charge of the atom is concentrated in a small, dense nucleus, which explains why most of the particles passed through without being deflected.
D: Empty space.
1) Atoms were mostly empty space (because most alpha particles went straight through the gold foil) 2) Atoms had a dense nucleus (because few alpha particles bounced straight back from the atoms) 3) The nucleus of atoms were positively charged (some alpha particles were deflected at large angles)
Rutherford
He discovered that the atom was mostly made up of empty space.
That the atom Mostly consisted of empty space.- apex
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.
The Rutherford gold foil experiment is a classic example that demonstrated atoms are mostly empty space. In this experiment, alpha particles were directed at a thin gold foil, and most particles passed through without being deflected, suggesting that atoms are mostly empty space with a small, dense nucleus.
Scientists concluded that the atom consists of mostly empty space.

Opinions vary. The discovery of the atomic nucleus ("most of the atom is empty space")
The idea that the atom is mostly empty space was first proposed by Ernest Rutherford based on his gold foil experiment in 1909. This experiment led to the discovery that most of an atom's mass is concentrated in a nucleus at the center, surrounded by electrons in vast empty space.
Yes, it is.
Rutherford discovered that atoms are mostly empty space through his famous gold foil experiment. He observed that most of the alpha particles passed straight through the foil, indicating that atoms had a lot of empty space. The few particles that were deflected showed that the positive charge in an atom is concentrated in a small nucleus at the center.
The scientist stated that the structure of an atom is mostly empty space.
