Percent error is the difference between the measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%.

So first, we take our measured value, .299 cm, minus our known value, .225 cm.

.299 cm - .225 cm=.004 cm

Next, we divide that by our known value

\frac{.004}{.225}=.0177777778

Finally, multiply your answer by 100

.0177777778 x 100= 1.77777778 %

Round to three significant figures, and you're done.

=1.78 % error

% error = 2 %

\% \text{error} = \frac{\text{0.225 cm} - \text{0.229 cm}}{\text{0.225 cm}} \times100 \% = \frac{|-0.004|}{0.225} \times 100 \% = 2 \%

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In 1909 Ernest Rutherford proposed to Geiger and Marsden to conduct an experiment in which they would have to launch alpha particles from a radioactive source against a gold foil a few atoms thick.

The aim of the experiment was to corroborate Rutherford's idea that the particles would pass through the metal foil with little deviation.

Rutherford's interpretation of the experimental results gave rise to a new atomic model, and concluded that the mass of the atom was concentrated in a small region of positive charges that impeded the passage of alpha particles. He suggested a new model in which the atom had a nucleus or center in which the mass and the positive charge are concentrated, and that in the extra nuclear zone are the negatively charged electrons.
