Atomic Models Lesson 2 Rutherford’s Model

Gold Foil Experiment Rutherford was attempting to lend support to Thomson’s atomic model by sending a beam of massive alpha particles at a sheet of very thin (approximately 400 atoms thick) gold foil. The expected result would be a majority of the atoms going straight through the foil and some scattering to a small degree. This is because the atom was believed to be mainly empty space

Set Up

Results Most of the particles went straight through, as expected Some particles were scattered at small angles Some scattered at large angles In rare cases particles were reflected straight back. Rutherford stated, “It was as if you fired a shell at tissue paper and it came back and hit you.”

Results A study of the paths of the alpha particles revealed that they were curved rather than sharp.

Results After much studying, Rutherford came to the conclusion that the paths were most like objects being repelled by an electric force, not like those after a collision. This led him to believe that there was a large positive charge repelling the positively charged alpha particles. He said that it must be in the center of the atom and he called it the nucleus.

Nuclear Model Rutherford’s experiment resulted in a new model of the atom in which a dense, positively charged nucleus was surrounded by orbiting negatively charged electrons.

Problems This model was not well received. Physicists knew that a body traveling in circular motion was accelerating. (Recall physics 20 and centripetal acceleration.) An accelerating charge emits EMR according to Maxwell’s theory. If a charged particle is accelerating and therefore emitting EMR then it is losing energy.

Problems If an object is losing energy while traveling in a circular path then it’s orbit must decay. As a result, the electrons should spiral into the nucleus and the atom would collapse. Since atoms exist, the model must be wrong. It remained this way until Bohr made some additional observations.
