Explanation:

In Thomson's model, the atom is composed of electrons surrounded by a soup of positive charge to balance the electrons' negative charges, like negatively charged “plums” surrounded by positively charged “pudding”. The 1904 Thomson model was disproved by Hans Geiger's and Ernest Marsden's 1909 gold foil experiment.

Answer:

Thomson proposed the model of an atom to

be similar to that of a Christmas pudding.

The electrons, in a sphere of positive charge,

were like currants (dry fruits) in a spherical

Christmas pudding. We can also think of a

watermelon, the positive charge in the atom

is spread all over like the red edible part of

the watermelon, while the electrons are

studded in the positively charged sphere, like

the seeds in the watermelon .Thomson proposed that:

(i) An atom consists of a positively

charged sphere and the electrons are

embedded in it.

(ii) The negative and positive charges are

equal in magnitude. So, the atom as a

whole is electrically neutral.
