Thomson's atomic model failed to explain how the positive charge holds on the electrons inside the atom. It also failed to explain an atom's stability. The theory did not mention anything about the nucleus of an atom. It was unable to explain the scattering model of Rutherford.

In 1911 Rutherford showed that Thomson's model was wrong because, the distribution of the positive and negative charge was not uniform. Rutherford showed that the atom contains a small, massive, positively charged nucleus. He also agreed with Nagaoka that the electrons move in circular orbits outside the nucleus.
