Why did Rutherford use gold film in his famous experiment?
Ellie AndrewsBecause Rutherford used thin gold foil.
And why should be use gold foil.........?

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
