Solution

The incorrect statement about Thomson’s model is A. In atom, the electrons are found in orbits. According to Thomson's model, also known as the "plum pudding" model, the atom is a sphere of positive charge with negatively charged electrons embedded in it, not orbiting around it. This model does not include orbits for electrons.
