pha particles are projected toward a gold foil from a distance that is sufficiently large to consider the Coulomb force negligible. The gold nuclei have 118 neutrons and 79 protons. If a 3.45 MeV alpha particle has a scattering angle of 180° and the gold nucleus does not recoil, determine the distance of closest approach of the alpha particle.

Rutherford's scattering experiment

Rutherford’s scattering experiment is also known as the gold foil experiment. This experiment disproved the plum pudding model of J.J. Thomson. In a gold foil experiment, high-energy alpha particles are made to strike a thin gold foil. The scattered alpha particles are detected using a detector. This experiment showed that the positive charge of the atom is at the center. Most of the atom’s mass is also confined to a small volume at the center. This region is known as the nucleus of the atom.
