    Rutherford's Atomic Model

    • Most of the atomic mass and positive charges are concentrated in the nucleus.
    • The sum of negative electric charges of electrons is equal to the sum of positive charges in the nucleus.
    • Electrons travel in orbits around the nucleus.
    • The electrostatic force of attraction between the nucleus and the electrons is overcome by the centrifugal force of the electrons.
