In Rutherford famous gold foil experiment most of the α-particle pass through the foil undeflected signifying most of the space inside the atom should be empty, and many of them get deflected by a very small angle implying that the nature of the charge inside the atom (nucleus) that is located at the centre of the atom should be the same as the α-particles i.e. positive. Out of 10000 α-particle, one of them gets deflected for almost 1800 that means the particles retraces its path telling something very dense is situated at the centre of the atom.
