Drawbacks of Rutherford's model

Q.

What are the features of the nuclear model of an atom as proposed by Rutherford?

1. Mass of the atom is uniformly distributed throughout the atom

2. Size of the atom is equal to size of nucleus

3. Electrons travel in a random path.

4. Presence of nucleus, movement of electrons in circular path and size of nucleus is very small as compared to size of the atom
