Answer»

1. an atom has a DENSE,heavy,positively CHARGED central part of called nucleus
2. the total electrons are present at very large distances from the nucleus
3.the total positive charge on the nucleus is equal to the total negative charge on all the electrons so that atom on the whole is ellectrically neutral
4.the electrons are revolving around the neuclous so that attractive force of the nucleus is balanced by the centrifugal force



drawback
1. it could not explain the stability of an atom when charged electrons are moving under the attractive force of positively charged nucleus........... hope it will help U
