Rutherford and his colleagues were able to calculate the number of alpha particles which would be scattered onto any angle. And with the agreement of these calculations up to a certain large angle where they got significant deviations.

Answer:

5. the scattering of α particles by a metal foil

Explanation:

This is the classical Rutherford's experiment in which he bombarded a thin foil of gold with alpha particles which are positively charged helium nucleus.

He did observed that most of the particles passed through the foil relatively undeflected or if they were deflected it was by a very small angle.

Once in a while the alpha particle rebounded completely. An analogy is the one typically mentioned that it was as if we throw a ball at a piece of paper and it rebounds toward us.

This observations led Rutherford to conclude that the nucleus of the atom is  very small positely charged and  that the  atom is relatively empty  with electrons of very small masses. His model is referred as the Plum Pudding model and later Bohr modified it to the planetary model.
