Question 3 options:
Supported by Rutherford's gold foil experiment
A small, dense, positively-charged nucleus surrounded by a negatively-charged electron cloud.
The atom has a small positively-charged nucleus with negatively-charged electrons orbiting in different energy levels.
This is the current model of atomic structure which explains the existence of electron clouds and their discrete energy levels.
Sometimes referred to as the Planetary Model
Was disproved by Rutherford's gold foil experiment
Negatively-charged electrons randomly dispersed in a sea of positive charge.
