Q100 / 125 · BITSAT 2021 · Physics

The significant result deduced from the Rutherford's scattering experiment is that

Correct answer
A
whole of the positive charge is concentrated at the centre of atom
B
there are neutrons inside the nucleus
C
$\alpha$ - particles are helium nuclei
D
electrons are embedded in the atom

Solution

The significant result deduced from the Rutherford's scatter ing is that whole of the positive charge is concentrated at the centre of atom i.e. nucleus.

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