Thomson had two pieces of evidence:

1- No matter what metal he used for the disk, the particles produced were indentical.

2- The particles had about 1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen, the lightest atom.

These experiments provided the first evidence that atoms are made of even smaller particles.

Why did Thomson think that atom must contain positive charges?

Thomson thought that the atom must contain positive charges because his discovery of electrons inside the atom indicated the presence of negatively charged particles. To balance the negative charge of electrons, there must be positive charges present within the atom.


What did J J Thomson enjoy doing?

i have no idea what he enjoyed doing but i think it was his wonderful job working with electrons


What scientist said there are small negatively charged particles inside an atom?

J.J. Thomson proposed the existence of small negatively charged particles inside an atom, which he called electrons. This discovery was a crucial development in understanding the structure of atoms and led to the plum pudding model of the atom.


Who discovered the electrons?

J. J. Thomson


What did jj Thomson think the atom looked like?

J.J. Thomson proposed the "plum pudding" model of the atom, where electrons were embedded in a positively charged sphere, similar to plums in a pudding. This model suggested that the atom was a uniform, positively charged structure with negatively charged electrons scattered throughout.


Was tom Thomson married?

I don't think so


Has Thomson tv stopped broadcasting?

Yep i think so


How many siblings did Tom Thomson have?

He had around 10 i think.


Who described the atom as a negative charges scattered through a ball of positive?

Thomson described this method. He gave plum pudding model.


His theory of atomic structures led to the plum pudding model?

The plum pudding model was proposed by J.J. Thomson in 1904, before the discovery of the atomic nucleus. It suggested that atoms were composed of positively charged substance with electrons embedded within it like plums in a pudding. It was later replaced by the Rutherford model when the nucleus was discovered.


What did J.J. Thomson create in chemistry?

You think probable to the discovery of isotopes (with Aston).


Where inside the electron cloud would you find an electron?

the electrons just bounce around the electron clouds freely. think about 2 spheres, a small one suspended inside a bigger one. the smaller one is the nucleus, and the big one is the cloud. the electrons just bounce around in the space between the nucleus and the cloud
