Atomic Model of Rutherford – Structure of Atom

Atomic Model of Rutherford   In 1911, Lord Rutherford made an experiment to construct an atomic model. He took a thin gold foil and bombarded it with α-particles. Gold foil was surrounded by photographic film. Rutherford’s Observations: He observed in the alpha scattering experiment that : Most α-rays passed through gold foil un-deflected.                                                                                                Only a …
