Thomson atomic model was proposed by J.J Thomson in 1898. He said that the atom possesses a spherical shape with a positive charge that is uniformly distributed and the electrons are embedded into it in such a manner that it gives the most stable electrostatic arrangement. This model is also known by various names like plum pudding, raisin pudding, or watermelon. One important feature of this model is that it could explain the overall neutrality of the atom and also that the mass of the is uniformly distributed.
