What was ernest rutherford's experiment? o a. he measured the electricity produced when light hit metal. b. he measured the bending of a cathode ray caused by electricity. ) c. he shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil. d. he suspended tiny drops of charged oil in an electric field.

C. He shot tiny alpha particles through a piece of gold foil.

Explanation:

In the year 1911, Ernest Rutherford performed the gold foil experiment which gave a deeper perspective to the structure of an atom.

He simply collided a thin gold foil with an alpha particle which he generated from a radioactive source. He discovered that most of the alpha particles passed through the thin gold foil but a few were deflected back. His discovery led to the proposition of the nuclear model of the atom.

is there any options? maybe im just not seeing them but i need the options to
