2. Rutherford’s scattering experiment proved the presence of A.Atoms in all matter B.Electrons in atoms C.Neutrons in atoms D.Nucleus in atoms
Answer: Option D Solution: Rutherford's gold foil experiment demonstrated that almost all of the mass of an atom is in a tiny volume in the center of the atom which Rutherford called the nucleus. This positively charged mass was responsible for deflecting alpha particles propelled through the gold foil.
