Explanation:
Thomson’s Atomic Model
In 1898, J. J. Thomson proposed the first of many atomic models to come. He proposed that an atom is shaped like a sphere with a radius of approximately 10-10m, where the positive charge is uniformly distributed. The electrons are embedded in this sphere so as to give the most stable electrostatic arrangement.

Doesn’t the figure above remind you of a cut watermelon with seeds inside? Or, you can also think of it as a pudding with the electrons being the plum or the raisins in the pudding. Therefore, this model is also referred to as the watermelon model, the plum pudding model or the raisin pudding model.
An important aspect of this model is that it assumes that the mass of the atom is uniformly distributed over the atom. Thomson’s atomic model was successful in explaining the overall neutrality of the atom. However, its propositions were not consistent with the results of later experiments. In 1906, J. J. Thomson was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his theories and experiments on electricity conduction by gases.
Rutherford’s Atomic Model
The second of the atomic models was the contribution of Ernest Rutherford. To come up with their model, Rutherford and his students – Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden performed an experiment where they bombarded very thin gold foil with α-particles. Let’s understand this experiment.
α-Particle Scattering Experiment
Experiment
In this experiment, high energy α-particles from a radioactive source were directed at a thin foil (about 100nm thickness) of gold. A circular, fluorescent zinc sulfide screen was present around the thin gold foil. A tiny flash of light was produced at a point on the screen whenever α-particles struck it.

Results
Based on Thomson’s model, the mass of every atom in the gold foil should be evenly spread over the entire atom. Therefore, when α-particles hit the foil, it is expected that they would slow down and change directions only by small angles as they pass through the foil. However, the results from Rutherford’s experiment were unexpected –
Most of the α-particles passed undeflected through the foil.
A small number of α-particles were deflected by small angles.
Very few α-particles (about 1 in 20,000) bounced back.

Conclusions of the α-scattering experiment
Based on the above results, Rutherford made the following conclusions about the structure of the atom:
Since most of the α-particles passed through the foil undeflected, most of the space in the atom is empty.
The deflection of a few positively charged α-particles must be due to the enormous repulsive force. This suggests that the positive charge is not uniformly spread throughout the atom as Thomson had proposed. The positive charge has to be concentrated in a very small volume to deflect the positively charged α-particles.
Rutherford’s calculations show that the volume of the nucleus is very small compared to the total volume of the atom and the radius of an atom is about 10-10m, while that of the nucleus is 10-15m.

_________________________________________
In many ways, the Rutherford model of the atom is the classic model of the atom, even though it's no longer considered an accurate representation. Rutherford's model shows that an atom is mostly empty space, with electrons orbiting a fixed, positively charged nucleus in set, predictable paths.
This model of an atom was developed by Ernest Rutherford, a New Zealand native working at the University of Manchester in England in the early 1900s. Rutherford spent most of his academic career researching aspects of radioactivity and, in 1908, won the Nobel Prize for his discoveries related to radioactivity. It was after this that Rutherford began developing his model of the atom.
Discovery of the Atom:
The atom was first conceived of by the Greek philosopher Democritus in approximately 400 BCE. The concept was lost during the Dark Ages of Europe until 1803, when the British scientist John Dalton speculated that everything was composed of very tiny indivisible particles called atoms.
Dalton's simple model of an atom persisted until 1897, when another British physicist, J.J. Thomson, discovered that atoms contained tiny negatively charged particles called electrons. From 1897 to 1909, scientists thought that atoms were composed of electrons spread uniformly throughout a positively charged matrix. J.J. Thomson's model was known as the plum pudding model.
Dalton's model of the atom depicted a tiny, solid, indivisible sphere. Thomson's plum pudding model shows electrons (the green circles) distributed in a positively charged matrix.
Development of the Rutherford Model
In 1909, Rutherford conducted his famous gold foil experiment. In the experiment, Rutherford and his colleague Hans Geiger bombarded a piece of gold foil with positively charged alpha particles, expecting them to travel straight through the foil. Instead, many alpha particles ricocheted off of the foil, suggesting that there was something positive these particles were colliding with. They named this positive force the nucleus. The Rutherford Model was created based on this new data.
This diagram depicts the expected and the actual results of the gold foil experiment. The diagram on the left shows particles passing through the positively charged matrix of the plum pudding model. The diagram on the right shows particles ricocheting off of the nucleus in the center of the atom.
