Dear student

Rutherford used a very thin gold foil in the alpha ray scattering experiment.  He used a gold foil over all the other metals as gold is the most malleable metal available and it can easily be beaten into very thin sheets. The gold sheet used in this experiment was around 1000 atoms thick. 

thanks and regards
