Question

For what atomic model did Rutherford's gold foil experiment provide?

Answer 1

You mean............`"for what does it provide evidence?"`

Explanation:

See this old answer...............

I think you refer to Rutherford's gold foil experiment, in which `alpha-"particles"` were fired at a thin gold film.

The results of Rutherford's experiment were consistent with an atomic model with a dense nuclear core.........

It is important to realize that `"it did not prove anything."` It provides evidence for a particular model of reality. And we require further evidence to confirm that model.

Thx to Gio who pointed out an unjustified assumption on my part. It might still be unjustified.
