Ernest Rutherford's testable idea was that atoms have a small, positively charged nucleus at their center. He conducted the famous gold foil experiment, in which he observed the scattering of alpha particles, to support this concept. This experiment provided evidence for the existence of a dense nucleus within atoms.
Ernest Rutherford conducted experiments in combining elements.
The gold-foil experiment
Ernest Rutherford developed the first nucleus and electron model of the atom. It was based on experiments conducted by Geiger and Marsden.
The proton was discovered by Ernest Rutherford in 1917. Rutherford identified the proton while conducting experiments on the structure of the atom.
Ernest Rutherford's experiments on the scattering of alpha particles by a thin sheet of gold foil led to the discovery of the atomic nucleus and the realization that atoms contain a central, positively charged nucleus called the proton.

Ernest Rutherford is credited with the development of the "Rutherford Model" of the atom, which proposed that the atom consisted of a small, dense nucleus containing positively charged protons orbited by negatively charged electrons. This model was developed in 1911 based on experiments conducted in his laboratory.

the experiments of Ernest Rutherford in 1910
Ernest Rutherford is perhaps best known for his model of the atom. He developed his own model, based upon his research, to replace Thomson's plum-pudding model.
