Solution
The correct option is C FT
Statement 1:
According to the Thomson’s model of the atom an atom possesses a spherical shape.
Statement 2:
Positive charge is uniformly distributed throughout the spherical atom and negatively charged electrons are embedded in the atom such that the total magnitude of both the charges are equal and hence the atom is electrically neutral.
Thus, statement -1 is false and statement - 2 is true.
