The Rutherford model of atom has neither addressed the process of radiation of atoms nor could it explain the stability of the atom in spite of the revolving electrons around the nucleus. According to electrodynamics the electron should radiate electromagnetic waves. A simple calculation shows that an electron starting from a circular orbit of the size of an atom will spiral into the nucleus by radiating away its energy in a very short time, about 10-8 s. This makes stability of the atom impossible, which is not the case.

∙ 11y agoHis model could not explain the position of the electrons in an atom. Orbitals had not been discovered yet. He presumed the electrons were place similar to the plum-pudding model by J. J. Thompson. A key difference between the two models is the that Rutherford acknowledged the presence of the proton.

What is the different between an insulator and a conductor using the bohr Rutherford model of atoms to explain?
ramkalwan
Which scientist developed atomic model?
The modern atomic model is elaborated by Niels Bohr.
Whose model was called planetary model of the atom?
its was Ernest Rutherford who proposed the planetary atomic model
Why did the modal of Rutherford could not explain the stability of atoms?
mathematically it was calculated that for the Rutherford model to be stable it would require that 1000 or more electrons be in a single atom, but atoms only have (naturally occurring atoms) less than 100 electrons.
What early theory of atomic structure described electrons as moving around a central nucleus similar to the solar system?
Ernest Rutherford. Added: I would think Neils Bohr here. Clarification: I think it was Rutherford. Bohr's work came after the "Rutherford Model". There are many places to read about this, eg Wikipedia " Rutherford Model". Certainly Bohr refined the Rutherford Model even before his quantum ideas for the hydrogen atom. That's why the "planetary model" is sometimes called the "Rutherford-Bohr Model."
Can both Rutherford and Bohrs model of the atom explain spectra lines of elements?
Bohr model explain these spectra.
How does Rutherford's model of atoms explain the deflection of alpha particles by gold foils?

Problems with Rutherford model?
In Rutherford's model of the atom the electrons had a circular motion around the nucleus. By the laws of physics, if something is going in a circular motion then it must be accelerating and a particle that accelerates is losing energy. This means that the electrons that are revolving around the nucleus would eventually fall into the nucleus. Nucleus would eventually collapse. This does not happen therefore the Rutherford model was put aside.
Describe bohr model and how it differ from Rutherford model and how it is similar to Rutherford model?
any model on bohr model
How is the Bohr model better than the Rutherford model?
Bohr formulated new explanation and theories to remove Rutherford defect in Rutherford atomic model thats why Bohr atomic model is better than Rutherford atomic model.
What nickname did Rutherford's theory receive?
Rutherford's theory is known as the Rutherford model or Rutherford atomic model. It describes the structure of an atom as a dense positively charged nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons.
Which scientist developed atomic model?
The modern atomic model is elaborated by Niels Bohr.
Whose model was called planetary model of the atom?
its was Ernest Rutherford who proposed the planetary atomic model
Who discovered the nuclear model?
Ernest Rutherford created the nuclear model of an atom!
Who atomic model determined that an atoms positive charge is concentrated in the atoms center?
This is the Rutherford model.
Why did the modal of Rutherford could not explain the stability of atoms?
mathematically it was calculated that for the Rutherford model to be stable it would require that 1000 or more electrons be in a single atom, but atoms only have (naturally occurring atoms) less than 100 electrons.
