What did the pudding represent in the plum pudding model?
Thomson's plum pudding model is the model of an atom in which an atom is regarded as a sphere of size 10^(-10)m radius and positively charged matter in which electrons were embedded. Thomson used the pudding as the positive charge and the plums as the negative charge. The plums are stuck in the pudding just as electrons are randomly found in an atom.
Who said electrons are randomly put in the atom?
J.J Thompson
Electrons paths cannot be predicted?
no. the current theory is that the electrons move randomly in the outer most part of a molecule in part called the "electron cloud" which is just swirling mass of electrons with no predictable path
Is electric current the movement of positive charged particles?
No. There are 3 parts in the atom, which are: Proton-Positive charge Electron-Negitive charge Neutron-Neutral/No charge So protons are what carry the positive charge, where as neutrons dont carry any charge.
Can you have a temporary dipole and a permanent dipole at the same time or TDID and PDD at the same time?
A temporary dipole occurs when through a cloud type formation, randomly electrons gather at one location. A permanent dipole is when one atom attracts more electrons effectively giving it a negative charge. Both conditions can exist at the same time.

Why does metalic bonding cause metals to conduct electric current?
Metallic bonding involves positive metal cations surrounded by a 'sea' of delocalised electrons. These delocalised electrons are able to move freely as they are not joined to one particular atom. Normally, these electrons are moving completely randomly and so their resultant velocity is zero. However, when a potential difference is applied, these electrons gain a small resultant drift velocity that enables them to flow as an electric current.
Electrons paths cannot be predicted?
no. the current theory is that the electrons move randomly in the outer most part of a molecule in part called the "electron cloud" which is just swirling mass of electrons with no predictable path
According to the plum pudding model electrons are distributed randomly thoughtout the positively charge pudding of the atom?
Atom
What is meant by thermal velocity of an electron?
It means that due to the temperature, electrons move back and forth randomly, even if there is no current. A current would imply a systematic movement of electrons, i.e., more electrons moving in one direction than in the other.
How do electrons move around the atoms nucleus?
In orbitals, quantum mechanical statistical clouds that can each hold a maximum of 2 electrons (one spin up, one spin down).
Mathmatically based system for analyzing and measuring randomly selected parts?
perhaps mathematical modeling, although im not 100% positive.
What particles are found in an atom?
An atom contains neutrons and positively charged protons in its nucleus. Negatively charged electrons move randomly throughout the atom.
What purpose you use voltage in current?
Electrons cannot flow in a particular direction(current)it moves randomly without external voltage or potential,hence there is no net electric current.hence we need a external potential to drift electrons in a particular direction.
