Final answer:

J.J. Thomson did not name the positive charges in his Plum Pudding Model protons.


Explanation:

The positive charges proposed were particle-like and Thomson named them protons. This statement is FALSE. J.J. Thomson did not name the positive charges protons; he proposed the existence of positive charges but did not give them that specific name. Instead, he referred to them as a "positive mass" within his Plum Pudding Model of the atom.
