Where was the plum pudding model discovered?

Plum Pudding Atoms. In 1897 J.J. Thomson discovered the electron, a negatively charged particle more than two thousand times lighter than a hydrogen atom. Thomson originally believed that the hydrogen atom must be made up of more than two thousand electrons, to account for its mass. read more

The plum pudding model is one of several scientific models of the atom. First proposed by J. J. Thomson in 1904 soon after the discovery of the electron, but before the discovery of the atomic nucleus, the model represented an attempt to consolidate the known properties of atoms at the time: 1) electrons are negatively-charged particles and 2) atoms are neutrally-charged. read more

And from this, the Plum Pudding Model was born, so named because it closely resembled the English desert that consists of plum cake and raisins. The concept was introduced to the world in the March 1904 edition of the UK’s Philosophical Magazine, to wide acclaim. read more

plum pudding model The Plum Pudding Model is a model of atomic structure proposed by J.J. Thomson in the late 19th century. Thomson had discovered that atoms are composite objects, made of pieces with positive and negative charge, and that the negatively charged electrons within the atom were very small compared to the entire atom. read more
