Question

write the limitations of rutherford's model of the atom​

Answer 1

Limitations of Rutherford model are :-

1. Rutherford’s model was unable to explain the stability of an atom. According to Rutherford’s postulate, electrons revolve at a very high speed around a nucleus of an atom in a fixed orbit. However, Maxwell explained accelerated charged particles release electromagnetic radiations. Therefore, electrons revolving around the nucleus will release electromagnetic radiation.
2. The electromagnetic radiation will have energy from the electronic motion as a result of which the orbits will gradually shrink. Finally, the orbits will shrink and collapse in the nucleus of an atom. According to the calculations, if Maxwell’s explanation is followed Rutherford’s model will collapse with 10^-8 seconds. Therefore, Rutherford atomic model was not following Maxwell’s theory and it was unable to explain an atom’s stability.
3. Rutherford’s theory was incomplete because it did not mention anything about the arrangement of electrons in the orbit. This was one of the major drawbacks of Rutherford atomic model.

Hope it helps

Answer 2

According to Rutherford's model of atom the electrons are revolving in a circular orbit around the nucleus. any such particle that was would undergo acceleration and radiate energy.the revolving electron would lost its energy and finally fall into nucleus, the atom would be highly unstable but we know that atoms are quite stable.
