Question

Answer the following questions, which help you understand the difference between Thomson’s model and Rutherford’s model better.
Is the probability of backward scattering (i.e., scattering of α-particles at angles greater than 90°) predicted by Thomson’s model much less, about the same, or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford’s model?

✓

Answer

much lessThe probability of scattering of α-particles at angles greater than 90° predicted by Thomson's model is much less than that predicted by Rutherford's model.
