    Rutherford's gold-foil experiment showed that D. the atom is mostly empty space.

    When he shot α particles at a thin gold foil, most of them went straight through the foil without being deflected.

    However, a few of the α particles were deflected by rather large angles. He concluded that the atom is mostly empty space with almost all its mass concentrated in a small central nucleus.
