Did Ernest Rutherfords results fit with J.J Thomsons view of the atom?

Thomsons model is sometimes called the plum pudding model as he envisaged a soup of positive charge with negative charges, by then already called electrons swimming round. He came up with this idea in 1904."the atoms of the elements consist of a number of negatively electrified corpuscles enclosed in a sphere of uniform positive electrification"Rutherford following on from the famous scattering experiment with gold foil and alpha particles proposed that the positive charge was concentrated in a central nucleus.


What is a structure of an typical atom?

An atom is made up of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in orbitals. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons are neutral, and electrons have a negative charge. The number of protons determines the element's identity, while the number of electrons determines its charge.


In Thomson's plum pudding model the mass of the atom is in the?

In Thomson's plum pudding model, the mass of the atom is spread out uniformly throughout the positively charged sphere, similar to plums in a pudding. This model proposed that electrons were embedded in the positive sphere like plums in the pudding, representing the negative charges.


How did the discovery of the nucleus change Thomson's theory?

The discovery of the nucleus showed that atoms are not indivisible as Thomson had previously suggested. It led to the development of the new atomic model proposed by Rutherford, which included a dense, positively charged nucleus at the center with electrons orbiting around it. This model replaced Thomson's "plum pudding" model of the atom.


What is the difference between Thomsons atomic model and Rutherfords atomic model?

Thomson's model was the "Plum Pudding model" because it had electrons "floating" around in the ball, but Rutherford's model shows the electron shells, the nucleus, and the molecular particles: neutron, proton, and electron. Hope this helps!

How did rutherfords's experimental evidence lead to the development of a atomic model?

Rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrated the existence of the nucleus and lead to the model of a positive nucleus surrounded by electrons. This model was further developed by Bohr and then by Schroedinger and others to become the quantum mechanical model we now have with electrons in orbitals around the central positively charged nucleus..


In Thomsons Raisin Bun model what were the electrical charges on the bun and the raisins?

The charge of the negative charge of electrons surrounding the nucleus of the atom.


How do the plum pudding model and Rutherfords model of an atom differ?

The plum pudding model displays the atom as negatively charged electron embedded in a fluid of positive charge, thus the name plum for the electron and the pudding for the positive fluid thought to balance the negative charges. The Rutherford model is based on the gold foil experiment and it has a nucleus in which is extremely small, positively charged and dense. The model has lots of empty space around the nucleus which was where the electrons were placed.


What describes Rutherfords model of an atom?

Rutherford imagined the atom to be a particle with a thickly concentrated positive nucleus and electrons moving around it.


Rutherfords conclusion of the structure of an atom?

Rutherford concluded that an atom has a small, dense nucleus at its center, surrounded by orbiting electrons. The nucleus contains positively charged protons, with neutral neutrons also present. This model is known as the nuclear model of the atom.
