b. Don't take up most of the space in an atom,

Answer:

b. don't take up most of the space in an atom.

Explanation:

Rutherford’s gold foil experiment showed that most of the subatomic particles are confined in a small volume at the center nucleus of the atom. When Rutherford bombarded gold foil with alpha particles he observed that a small fraction of them deflected by 180 degree. So he concluded that the center of the atom is dense.
