Following conclusions were drawn from the given figure :
I. There is a positively charged centre in an atom called the nucleus.
II. An atom consists of a positively charged sphere and the electrons are embedded in it.
III. The electrons revolve around the nucleus in well-defined orbits.
IV. The size of the nucleus is very small as compared to the size of the atom
V. Only certain special orbits known as discrete of electrons are allowed inside the atom.
Choose the correct statements.

  • $$0.52$$
  • $$0.68$$
  • $$0.73$$
  • $$0.74$$
Rutherford's model of atom could not hold good because:
  • it did not account for the stability of an atom
  • the atom did not have a nucleus and an electron
  • it did not account for the attraction between a proton and an electron
  • there is actually no space between the nucleus and the electron
In Rutherford's gold foil experiment:
  • very few $$\alpha$$-particles are deflected back.
  • most of $$\alpha$$-particles remain undeflected.
