What are the limitations of J.J. Thomson's model of the atom?

The limitations of J.J Thomson's model of an atom is - it failed to explain the alpha particle scattering experiment results, no experimental pieces of evidence were not given by him and he failed to describe the atoms stability.

William Thomson put forth the Thomson atomic model in 1900. This model provided a theoretical explanation of the description of an atom's interior structure. Sir Joseph Thomson, who had earlier made the discovery of the electron, backed it wholeheartedly.

J.J. Thomson found a negatively charged particle during a cathode ray tube experiment. In 1897, this experiment was conducted. A vacuum tube is a cathode ray tube. The electron was the name given to the harmful particle.

Postulates of J.J Thomson's model of an atom:

• The electrons are housed inside a positively charged sphere that is part of an atom.
• Positive and negative charges are of equal magnitude. An atom is electrically neutral as a result of this.
