Explanation:
Sorry, I don't know, but I can tell you that when an atom, or a body, has the same amount of positive charges (protons) and negative charges (electrons), it is said to be electrically neutral. ... The net charge corresponds to the algebraic sum of all the charges that a body possesses.
A cation (+) will be smaller than its neutral atom, while anion (-) will be larger than its neutral atom.
Answer:
The plum-pudding model did not identify a central nucleus as the source of a positive charge.
Explanation:
Sir Joseph John Thomson, most popularly known as J J Thomson. He was a famous scientist who was awarded the Noble prize for Physics for his discovery of the subatomic particle, electron.
He placed his famous model of an atom which is known as plum pudding model. He proposed that the atoms are described as the negative particles that is floating within a soup of the diffuse positive charge.
But the main defect of his proposal was that it did not recognized the presence of a central nucleus as a positive charged source.
