11. Chemist Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment in which he concluded the atom is mostly empty space, with a small, dense, positively charged center. Rutherford's
discovery of the proton did not fully account for the entire mass of the atom. Which is an
example of research that extended Rutherford's findings?
a. De Broglie viewed electrons exhibiting wave-like behavior.
b. Bohr concluded that electrons orbit the nucleus in set circular paths.
c. Chadwick determined the charge of the neutron to be neutral and its mass similar to
that of a proton.
d. Thomson determined that the atom consists of negatively-charged particles.
