1
New cards

  • describe the alpha particle scattering experiment


  • a narrow beam of alpha particles travels towards a thin gold foil


2
New cards

  • state the observations regarding the alpha particle scattering experiment


  • most alpha particles travelled through the gold foil

  • some were scattered

  • very few were scattered at an angle greater than 90°


3
New cards

  • state what can be inferred about the atomic model from the first observation


  • most of an atom is empty space
