Explain Thomson's model of an atoms? with its postulate.
❥The description of Thomson’s atomic model is one of the many scientific models of the atom.
❥It was proposed by J.J Thomson in the year 1904 just after the discovery of electrons.
❥However, at that time the atomic nucleus was yet to be discovered.
❥ So, he proposed a model on the basis of known properties available at that time.
❥The known properties are:
Atoms are neutrally charged
Negatively charged particles called electrons are present in an atom.
Postulate 1: An atom consists of a positively charged sphere with electrons embedded in it
Postulate 2: An atom as a whole is electrically neutral because the negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude
❥Thomson atomic model is compared to watermelon. Where he considered:
Watermelon seeds as negatively charged particles
The red part of the watermelon as positively charged
Answer:
- J.J. Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of the atom, which had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup."
- According to the postulates of Thomson's atomic model, an atom resembles a sphere of positive charge with electrons (negatively charged particles) present inside the sphere. The positive and negative charge is equal in magnitude and therefore an atom has no charge as a whole and is electrically neutral.
