Question

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆What are the limitations of Rutherford’s model of the atom?☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Answer 1

☆$\red {HELLO\:DEAR}$☆

1. According to Rutherford’s model of an atom, electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed orbits.
2. But, an electron revolving in circular orbits will not be stable because during revolution, it will experience acceleration.
3. Due to acceleration, the electrons will lose energy in the form of radiation and fall into the nucleus.
4. In such a case, the atom would be highly unstable and collapse.

Answer 2

Answer:

limitations of Ruther Ford's atom model

Explanation:

According to electro magnetic theory, a moving electron should accelerate and continuously lose energy. due to lose of energy, the path of electron may reduce and finally the electron should fall into the nucleus.if it happens so, atom becomes unstable. but atoms are stable. thus, Rutherford's atom model failed to explain the stability of an atom.
