2. Experiment design:
Rutherford instructed Marsden to fire alpha particles at gold foil, and when he did so he found that most of the particles were deflected away at large angles.
Marsden then found that Metals with a larger atomic number such as lead deflect even more particles and at larger angles.
Alpha Particles: Uranium emits two different type of radiation that penetrate or “go through” more objects. The less penetrating type of particles are called alpha particles; while beta particles penetrate more objects.

3. Evidence:
When he shot particles at gold foil, he noticed that the particles deflect at high angles and when he shot particles at lead, it deflected back.
In simple term, he summarized as “plump pudding with raisin ”.
