What name was given to jj thompson's model of the atom?

Answer 1

J.J. Thompson's model of the atom, often refered to as the "plum pudding model" due to it's random distribution of electrons throughout the atom, suggested that negatively charged electrons were scattered about a positively charged jelly-like substance, with the charge from the positive material canceling out the negative charge from the electrons.

Answer 2

jj thomson proposed his model of atom in the year 1903

according to him:-

• An atom consists of a sphere of positive charge with negatively charged electrons embeded in it
• The positive and negative charges in an atom are equal in magnitude,due to which an atom is electrically neutral.It has no overall positive or negative charge

Answer 3

Rutherford's model is called the "Plum Pudding Model"

Answer 4

J.J. Thomson's model of the atom is known as the "plum pudding model." This model suggests that an atom is a positively charged sphere with electrons embedded in it like plums in a pudding.
