What are the characteristic features of the Thomson model of atom?
Characteristic features of Thomson model of an atom are:
(i) An atom consists of a positively charged sphere and the electrons are embedded in it.
(ii) The negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude. So, the atom as a whole is electrically neutral.

What are the limitations of Rutherford model of the atom?
Describe Bohr's model of the atom ?
