Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
J. J. Thomson discovered the electron in 1897 through cathode ray tube experiments, measuring charge-to-mass ratio (e/m) of cathode rays. Proton: Rutherford; neutron: Chadwick; nucleus: Rutherford's gold foil experiment. Memory aid: 'Thomson = plum pudding model (electrons in positive sphere)'. This historical question tests knowledge of subatomic particle discoveries, frequently examined in competitive exams. Always recall the experimental methods: Thomson (cathode rays), Millikan (oil drop for e), Rutherford (alpha scattering).
