Answer:

like water melon where the red part of water melon is positive and seed of melon is electron heaving negative charge

Explanation:

Thomson’s atomic model failed to explain how the positive charge holds on the electrons inside the atom. It also failed to explain an atom’s stability.

The theory did not mention anything about the nucleus of an atom.

It was unable to explain the scattering experiment of Rutherford

conclusion:

Even though Thomson’s atomic model was inaccurate and had a few drawbacks, it provided the base for several other atomic structure models afterward. It is one of the foundation models that led to significant and revolutionary inventions later.
