Brainliestttme : ) explain rutherford’s gold foil experiment and relate it to thomson’s work.

Here’s what I get.

Explanation:

J. J. Thomson proposed that the electrons in an atom were embedded within a sphere of uniform positive charge, much like the raisins in a plum pudding (North Americans would call it a Christmas cake).

If that were the case, Rutherford reasoned, a stream of α particles should pass through the atom with little deflection.

Rutherford had his graduate students, Geiger and Marsden, shoot α particles through a thin gold foil.

Most of the particles passed through with little deflection, but a few rebounded back towards the emitter.

Rutherford concluded that most of the mass and all the positive charge in an atom was concentrated in a central nucleus with a cloud of electrons orbiting it like planets circling about the Sun.

His model is now called the nuclear model or the planetary model of the atom.

because of all the things that happen around the us, many people get into arguments which sadly could get physical, but we should actually make a change for that.
