Answer:
There are majorly four drawbacks of Rutherford's model of atom was there:
- Rutherford’s atomic model could not explain how the moving electrons could remain in its orbit.
- Any charged particle during acceleration would give out energy; and while revolving it would lose energy and eventually fall into the nucleus.
- This means that the atom would be highly unstable.
- But, matter is composed of stable atoms.
- Thus, the major drawback of Rutherford’s atomic model was that it could not explain the stability of atoms.
