Solution

J.J Thomson model:

  • An atom consists of a positively charged sphere with electrons embedded in it
  • An atom as a whole is electrically neutral because the negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude

Therefore, J.J.Thomson model of the atom proposed that electrons are embedded in a positive sphere which represents the plum pudding model.
