What was Ernest Rutherford's experiment?
O
A. He measured the electricity produced when light hit metal.
B. He measured the bending of a cathode ray caused by electricity.
) C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.
D. He suspended tiny drops of charged oil in an electric field.

He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.
