A

In the plum pudding model, there is a positive sphere with negative charge randomly placed within the sphere. There is no empty space. In the nuclear model, there is a central positive, tiny nucleus, with mostly empty space and lots of negative charges a long way from the nucleus.
The mass in the plum pudding model is distributed equally throughout the sphere. The mass in the nuclear model is concentrated in the nucleus.
