Lord Kelvin, who was supported by Sir Joseph John Thomson, proposed in the 1900s that atoms consists of electrons. He later went in further detail and described that an atom is a sphere with positively charged matter, that is filed with negatively charged particles called electrons. Theses electrons were believed to be positioned throughout the model in rotating rings. Although the Thomson Model has negatively charged electrons, it doesn’t consist of protons. Even though the technical name of this discovery was the Thomson Model, most knew it as the Plum-Pudding Model.

What made Thomson's model different from Dalton's model was that Dalton did not know that there were electrons in the atom. In 1897, J.J. Thomson found electrons by experimenting with a Crookes tube. Dalton knew that all things were made up of atoms, but he did not know about elections, which Thomson figured out by experimenting.
