    Correct answer:

    C). Electrons are many thousand times smaller than the nucleus and negatively charged.

    J. J Thomson in his first experiment with cathode ray tube discovered that cathode rays and the charge that was deposited are intrinsically linked together.

    In his second experiment, he discovered that the charge in the cathode ray tube was negative. And from that, he deduces that cathode rays are made of negatively charged particles.
