Rutherford's experiment, in which he fired alpha particles of 7.7 MeV kinetic energy at a thin gold foil, showed that nuclei were very much smaller than the size of an atom because

◦
some alpha particles passed through the foil undeflected.

◦
some alpha particles were deflected backwards.

◦
some alpha particles were captured by the gold nuclei.

◦
the alpha particles could not get closer than 10−10 m to the gold nuclei.

◦
the alpha particles split into deuterium nuclei when they encountered the gold nuclei.
