What are the limitations of J. J. Thomson's model of the atom?
According to this model, the atom consists of positively charged sphere and the electrons are embedded in it. The charges are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, so the atom is neutral.
The limitations of J. J. Thomson's model of the atom are:- It could not explain the alpha scattering experiment done by Rutherford.
- There was no experimental evidence of the model proposed by J. J. Thomson.
