Because only a few alpha particles bounced back and were deflected, it was concluded that

• the nucleus is very dense and exists in the center of the atom

• electrons were located in the center of the atom

• the entire atom is dense

Which of the following is NOT true according to Rutherford's model of the atom?

• electrons are bunched together in the center of the atom

• the center of the atom (which contains all of its mass) is called the nucleus

• atoms are mostly empty space

Bohr's model of the atom said that electrons

• are found in the nucleus of the atom

• orbit the nucleus like planets orbit the sun

• are like chocolate chips

• are positively charged

Electrons behave like ​ (a)   .
