उत्तर
Thomson's Atomic Model:
According to Thomson's atomic model, an atom is made of positively charged substances in the form of a sphere. Electrons are embedded into this sphere, and the total positive charge of the sphere is equal to the total negative charge of electrons, and hence, the atom remained electrically neutral. This model was not accepted because it was unable to explain how positively charged particles were shielded from negatively charged particles without getting neutralised.
