Both A and R are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

  • The size of an atom's nucleus is very small in comparison to the size of the atom.
  • According to the Rutherford gold foil experiment, the nucleus is very small in comparison to the overall size of the atom.
  • The nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons and is very hard, dense, and positively charged.
  • There is an electrostatic force of attraction between negative charge (electron) and positive charge (nucleus), which provides the necessary centripetal force for electrons to revolve in a definite path around the nucleus.
  • Electrons orbit the nucleus in fixed orbits or shells known as energy levels. Electrons in one or more energy levels rotate around the nucleus.
  • Therefore, size of the nucleus has nothing to do with electrons revolving around the nucleus of an atom
