Rutherford’s alpha particle scattering experiments gave what evidence about an atom?
Before we can look at the evidence we need to look at the observations from the experiment. During the session we will go through the experiment and then the observations to deduce the atom theory - and how the plum pudding model was discarded.

In the Rutherford alpha scattering experiment, most particles passed straight through the foil with little or no deflection. What can be deduced about the structure of the atom from this?
