Which statement describes one feature of Rutherford’s model of the atom? The atom is mostly empty space. The atom cannot be divi
Dovator [93]

Answer: The atom is mostly empty space.

Explanation:

Before to Rutherford, the accepted model for the atom was Thomson's model:

The atoms were a positive sphere, with electrons occupying space in it".

This was called the "plum pudding model".

Then came Ernest Rutherford, and he created a model where the atoms are mostly empty space (void) with a positive charged nucleus (really compressed in the center), and the electrons were orbiting around it.

Then the correct option is that the atom is mostly empty space.
