Chemistry-
When the atoms of gold sheet are bombarded with a be am of α-particles, only a few α- particles get deflected where as most of them go straight un deflected. This is because–
Chemistry-General
- The nucleus occupies much smaller volume as compared to the volume of atom
- The force of repulsion on fast moving α- particles is very small
- The neutrons in the nucleus do not have any effect on α-particles.
- The force of attraction on the α-particles by the oppositely charged electron is not sufficient
Answer:The correct answer is: The force of attraction on the α-particles by the oppositely charged electron is not sufficientIT was the logical conclusion of his experiment.
