Answer»

Answer is : (a) had atomic number 2 and were fully ionised

Particles used in Rutherford’s scattering experiment (Geiger-Marsden experiment) are α-particles derived from a tube of radium emanation (or radon).

α-particles are helium nuclei 24He, they are fully ionised and have atomic number 2.
