Answer:

C. a dense region of positive charge existed somewhere in the atom.

Explanation:

Physicist Ernest Rutherford created the gold foil experiment in which he shot a beam of alpha particles at a sheet of gold foil, which then sent a  few of the particles flying after they were deflected. Based on the information gathered after completing this experiment, Rutherford concluded that a dense region of positive charge existed somewhere in the atom.
