What procedure was part of Rutherford's famous scattering experiment? a. Bombarding a thin metal foil with electrons. b. Bombarding a thin gold foil with alpha particles. c. Bombarding a thin gold foil with X-rays. d. Blasting neutrinos through a small hole in tin foil.

I think the correct answer among the choices listed above is option B. The procedure that was part of Rutherford's famous scattering experiment was bombarding a thin gold foil with alpha particles. The alpha particles produce a tiny, visible flash of light when it strike the foil.
