Answer: Atoms aren't entirely empty space

Explanation:

Rutherford did his scatter experiment to disprove Thomson's Plum Pudding Model. Rutherford shot helium nuclei at a sheet of gold and expected the particles to all go straight through to a sensor. The reason he expected this was because Thomson said that atoms are mostly made of empty space. Not all the particles went through the gold sheet, a lot of them actually reflected back to him. This meant that atoms aren't entirely empty space and something had to deflect the helium nuclei

The number above the symbol is the atomic mass (or atomic weight). This is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. The number below the symbol is the atomic number and this reflects the number of protons in the nucleus of each element's atom. Every element has a unique atomic number.
