Question
Recall which of the following statements is a part of J.J Thomson's model of the atom. Electrons orbit the nucleus.1Positively charged particles exist within atoms.2There is a positive cloud with electrons scattered through it.
Solution
The statement that is a part of J.J Thomson's model of the atom is "There is a positive cloud with electrons scattered through it." This model is often referred to as the "plum pudding" model. In this model, Thomson proposed that the atom is a sphere of positive charge (the 'pudding') with negatively charged electrons (the 'plums') scattered throughout.
The statement "Electrons orbit the nucleus" is not part of Thomson's model, but rather a part of Niels Bohr's model of the atom.
The statement "Positively charged particles exist within atoms" is a general truth about atoms, but it doesn't specifically relate to Thomson's model. In his model, the positive charge is not due to particles, but rather a uniform positive 'cloud'. The discovery of positively charged particles (protons) in the nucleus of the atom came later with the Rutherford model.
