12.1 The size of the atom in Thomson's model is no different from the atomic size in Rutherford's model.
In the ground state of Thomson's model, electrons are in stable equilibrium. While in Rutherford's model, electrons always experience a net force.
A classical atom based on Rutherford's model, is doomed to collapse.
An atom has a nearly continuous mass distribution in a Thomson's model, but has a highly non-uniform mass distribution in Rutherford's model.
The positively charged part of the atom possesses most of the mass in both the models.
