Solution

The correct option is A Arrangement of electrons around the nucleus
One of the drawbacks of Rutherford's model was also that he did not say anything about the arrangement of electrons in an atom which made his theory incomplete.
So, the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus is the correct answer here.
Hence, option A is correct.
