Rutherford proposed his model of the atom in order to explain the phenomena found in this experiment: ,f' 'j, the fraction of particles scattered through large angles was too large to be explained by previous models of the atom :1: :1 no particles passed through the foil undeflected I1: :1 the most common scattering angle was about 180 ,3, more particles scattered through angles greater than 90" than through angles less than 90 Previous Page Page 7 of 20
