Expert Answer:
Rutherford's Atomic Model
- Based on the results of the α-particle scattering experiments, Rutherford put forth his atomic model.
- An atom contains a positively charged centre called the nucleus of the atom. Almost all the mass of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus.
- The electrons of the atom revolve around the nucleus in fixed, circular orbits.
- The size of the nucleus is many times smaller than the size of the atom. The nucleus of an atom is 10,000 times smaller than the atom.
