How did rutherford’s experiment shape our current model of the atom?

Explanation:

Before the Rutherford's model of the atom, the plum pudding model proposed by J.J Thomson through his experiment using the gas discharge tube was the prevalent structure of the atom known.

Through Thomson, it was widely and popularly believed that the atom is made up of a pool of negatively charged particles.

When Rutherford performed the Alpha scattering experiment using a thing gold foil, he observed that all the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil and just a few of them were deflected back.

To explain this, the suggested the atomic or nuclear model of that atom in which an atom has a small positively charged center called nucleus where all the mass is concentrated.

Today, the suggestion that an atom is made up of nucleus is highly relevant and still consistent.

i need the answer to this too but idk it ; -;
