$2$. All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.
$3$. Compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms.
$4$. $A$ chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms.
$5$. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Statement $(A)$: As one considers orbits with higher values of $n$ in a hydrogen atom,the electric potential energy of the atom increases.
Statement $(B)$: In Thomson's model,an atom is a spherical cloud of positive charges with electrons embedded in it.
Statement $(C)$: The orbital picture in Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom was consistent with the uncertainty principle.

Given below are two statements:
$Statement$ $I$: Most of the mass of the atom and all its positive charge are concentrated in a tiny nucleus and the electrons revolve around it,is Rutherford's model.
$Statement$ $II$: An atom is a spherical cloud of positive charges with electrons embedded in it,is a special case of Rutherford's model.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate from the options given below.
