The results of Rutherford's gold foil experiment gave him the evidence to arrive at two conclusions: (1) an atom was much more than just empty space and scattered electrons and (2) an atom consists of a positive charge at the center where most of its mass is placed.

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford performed an experiment in which he passed alpha particles through a thin gold foil sheet. Through this sheet some of the particles passed on to the other side but some of them were reflected back.

This experiment was done by Rutherford to prove than an atom contains a tiny and heavy nucleus. He concluded that an atom has more than empty space and electrons were present in scattered form.

Also, he concluded that an atom consists of a positive charge at the center where most of its mass is placed.

Thus, we can conclude that the results of Rutherford's gold foil experiment gave him the evidence to arrive at two conclusions: (1) an atom was much more than just empty space and scattered electrons and (2) an atom consists of a positive charge at the center where most of its mass is placed.
