nucleon number + proton number
nucleon number x proton number
In Rutherford's famous experiment, the vast majority of alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil. What does that tell us?
The nucleus is very small and atoms are mostly empty space
The plum pudding model was correct
Atoms are tiny
The nucleus is positive
