In Rutherford's \(\alpha\)-particle scattering experiment, a thin foil of heavy metals like gold or platinum is typically used. If a lighter metal foil, such as aluminum, were used instead, how would the observed deflection patterns change?

1. The same results will be observed

2. More deflection would be observed

3. There will not be enough deflection

4. None of the above
