Q

What’s the difference between the plum pudding model and nuclear model?

A

The plum pudding model had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged. The nuclear model of the atom consists of a small and dense positively charged interior surrounded by a cloud of electrons.

20
Q

How do you figure out the number of electrons?

Q

How has the atomic model changed over time by James Chadwick?

A

James Chadwick had the atomic theory has been further enhanced by the concept that protons and neutrons are made of even smaller units called quarks.
