Particle sused in the Rutherford's scattering experiment to deduce the structure of atoms

Correct answer
A
had atomic number 2 and were fully ionised.
B
had atomic number 2 and were neutral.
C
had atomic number 4 and were fully ionised.
D
had atomic number 4 and were neutral.

Solution

$\alpha$-particle bombard during experiment $\alpha$-particles ionized helium

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
