    Bohr's model of the atom states that electrons orbit an atom's nucleus in electron shells of increasing energy. The electrons are free of physical contact with the nucleus, but are held in orbit due to the electrons' attraction to the oppositely charged protons in the nucleus.

    Thomson's model, or the plum pudding model, it describes atoms as spheres of positively charged matter, in which electrons are embedded in.

    The key difference is the locations of, and the motions of the electrons.
