Question

what is the limitations of rutherfords model of the atom?

Answer 1

Limitations of Rutherford Model. ... Rutherford proposed that the electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed paths called orbits. According to Maxwell, accelerated charged particles emit electromagnetic radiations and hence an electron revolving around the nucleus should emit electromagnetic radiation.

Answer 2

☆$\red {HELLO\:DEAR}$☆

According to Rutherford’s model of an atom, electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed orbits.

But, an electron revolving in circular orbits will not be stable because during revolution, it will experience acceleration.

Due to acceleration, the electrons will lose energy in the form of radiation and fall into the nucleus.

In such a case, the atom would be highly unstable and collapse.
