Which of the following conclusions could not be derived from Rutherford's -particle scattering experiment:
- A Most of the space in the atom is empty.
- B The radius of the atom is about , while that of the nucleus is .
- C Electrons move in circular paths of fixed energy, called orbits.
- D Electrons and the nucleus are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Electrons move in circular paths of fixed energy, called orbits.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Rutherford's scattering experiment established the idea of a nucleus, while maintaining that the electrons do not reside in the nucleus. On the basis of his experiment, Rutherford put forward the model of an atom which had the following features: There is a positively charged…
