According to the Rutherford atomic model:
The positive charge and most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in an extremely small volume. He called this region of the atom a nucleus.
Rutherford’s model proposed that the negatively charged electrons surround the nucleus of an atom. He also claimed that the electrons surrounding the nucleus revolve around it with very high speed in circular paths. He named these circular paths as orbits.
Electrons being negatively charged and nucleus being a densely concentrated mass of positively charged particles are held together by a strong electrostatic force of attraction.
Drawbacks of Rutherford’s atomic model :
It could not explain line spectra of atoms.
It could not explain the stability of an atom because this model does not obey Maxwell law of electrodynamics.
Rutherford’s atomic model does not say anything about the arrangement of electrons in an atom
Final answer :
1 .The positive charge and most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in an extremely small volume. He called this region of the atom a nucleus.
2 Rutherford’s model proposed that the negatively charged electrons surround the nucleus of an atom. He also claimed that the electrons surrounding the nucleus revolve around it with very high speed in circular paths. He named these circular paths as orbits.
3..Electrons being negatively charged and nucleus being a densely concentrated mass of positively charged particles are held together by a strong electrostatic force of attraction.
