What do we call the tiny core at the center of an atom, containing most of the atoms mass and all of its positive charge?

Nucleus

The _____________ is one kind of particle that makes up the atom and carries a positive charge.

Proton

Why dont all the electrons in an atom fall to the lowest energy level?

The lowest energy level can only hold 2 electrons

When Ernest Rutherford directed helium ions at gold foil, some of the helium ions bounced back in the direction they came from, rather than passing through. What was his explanation of this unexpected results.

The mass of gold atom is concentrated in a tiny, dense core
