Question

Explain the model of rutherford of atom with its limitation

Answer 1

The Rutherford model shows that an atom is mostly empty space, with electrons orbiting a fixed, positively charged nucleus in set, predictable paths. Prior to Rutherford, the popular model of the atom was the plum pudding model, popularized by J.J.

LIMITATIONS OF RUTHERFORD'S MODEL

Rutherford's model was unable to explain the stability of an atom. ...

The electromagnetic radiation will have energy from the electronic motion as a result of which the orbits will gradually shrink.

Answer 2

Heyaa !!!!!

The atomic theory proposed by Rutherford was generally acceptable .

But according to this model electrons should eventually collapse into the nucleus as they lose their energy while revolving within the field of attraction of the nucleus .

But this will not happen in atoms. Rutherford failed to give an explanation to this doubt .

So this model was eventually discarded
