In the Gold foil experiment of Geiger and Marsden, that paved the way for
Rutherford’s model of an atom, ~ 1.00% of the α-particles were found to
deflect at angles > 50º.
If one mole of α-particles were bombarded on the gold foil, compute the number of α-particles that would deflect at angles less than 500.
