Question

How does Bohr’s model of the atom compare with Thomson’s model?

Answer 1

Bohr's model of the atom states that electrons orbit an atom's nucleus in electron shells of increasing energy. The electrons are free of physical contact with the nucleus, but are held in orbit due to the electrons' attraction to the oppositely charged protons in the nucleus.
Thomson's model, or the plum pudding model, it describes atoms as spheres of positively charged matter, in which electrons are embedded in.
The key difference is the locations of, and the motions of the electrons.

Answer 2

J.J.Thompson discovered that cathode rays are negatively charged particles. According to J.J.Thompson’s plum pudding model, electrons are negative charges that embedded in a sea of positive charge like a pudding. According to Bohr’s atomic model electrons are found in discrete orbits around the nucleus. Bohr proposed that the electrons have quantized energy hence they do not spin and fall into nucleus thus making an atom highly stable.
