Answer :
Thomson's Model of Atom :-
- J.J. Thomson proposed a model of atom in 1898.
- According to him, an atom is a spherical shape of about 10^{-10} m radius.
- Positive charge is uniformly distributed in the atom.
- The are embedded in this positive charged spherical.
- They are embedded in such a manner that the atom is electrostatically stable.
- This model of atom is also called plum pudding, raisin pudding or watermelon.
- He visualized atom as a pudding or watermelon in which seeds aur plums are embedded like electrons.
- According to J.J. Thomson, mass of the atom is uniformly distributed over the atom.
- It was first model of atom introduced by someone.
- However, it wasn't correct model.
- It did not show how an atom is neutral.
