Key Concepts / Understandings to
be Developed
J.J. Thomson was able to discover that atoms have negatively-charged particles, which he called electrons. It led
him to propose a new model for the atom, which he called the plum pudding model.A group of scientists
composed of Ernest Rutherford, Johannes "Hans" Wilhelm Geiger and Ernest Marsden tested Thomson’s model
by bombarding a very thin sheet of gold foil with positively-charged alpha particles. Their experiment is referred to
as the alpha particle scattering experiment. The nuclear model of the atom proposed by Rutherford in 1912 is still
the picture of the atom that we hold today. Observations made afterward in experiments concerning the atom
support the model

Video Clip presentation

4.2 Activity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHaR2rsFNhg
Students will explain the findings of Rutherford on his experiment.

20 minutes

4.3 Analysis Why most of the alpha particles were undeflected or pass through? Few alpha particles hit at the center and it
bounced back, why is this so? Why some alpha particles are were deflected at a certain angle?
10 minutes
 Most of the alpha particles passed straight through the foil. This shows that most of the atom is
empty space .However ,a few of the alpha particles bounced back and some of the alpha particles
were deflected .This means that the center of the atom is positively charged because it repelled the
alpha particles ,the charge of which is positive .A direct collision repels an alpha particles backward.
4.4 Abstraction This shows that the center of the atom of gold is a tiny core heavier than an alpha particle.

4.5 Application
Cite examples where alpha scattering experiment is applied in real life situation. A bullet hit on a hard and sturdy
8 minutes materials it bounced back while when it hit to a light material it pass through.)
