What is Plum-Pudding model of the atom?

Solution

J.J Thomson proposed that an atom possesses a spherical shape (radius approximately 10-10m) in which the positive charge is uniformly distributed. The electrons are embedded into it in such a manner as to give the most stable electrostatic arrangement. This model is known as Plum-pudding model of the atom.
