The correct statements regarding Thompson’s model of atoms are that the positive charge is uniformly distributed, the mass of the atom is uniformly distributed, and the electrons are uniformly distributed in the charged sphere.
Thomson’s model of atoms is also called the plum pudding model as he described the atom as a positively charged sphere with a negative charge, i.e. the electrons are embedded on the surface of that sphere, similar to how fruits/chips are embedded in a pudding.
