There you are there at last, and I only had to tell you a few times.
Planck did nothing about electrons, he found (yet another) way
to determine Avogadro's number.

I'll put down the elementary logic -> Avogadro' of it once again:
Planck's radiation law -> Boltzmann's constabnt k

Sigh. Thomson did not determine the electron charge for his experiment.
He determined e/m.

Nothing was known 'for certain' about Avogadro's constant in 1900.
In fact, there was a whole school of physicists
(positivists, energists, etc. following for example Ernst Mach)
who denied the real existence of atoms,
and hence that there was any physical meaning to Avogadros number.
They considered it to be merely a convenient fiction,
useful for the purpose of doing certain calculations only.
But their position was gradually being worn down by many independent
and converging determinations of Avogadro's number.
(for example also Einstein 1905)
Chemists of course had no doubt about the real existence of atoms.

So now that I have clued you in you may understand what all the ado
about the 1908 Nobel prize was about.
Arrhenius (himself a chemist) proposed both Planck (physics)
and Rutherford (chemistry) for two simultaneous Nobel prizes,
both relating directly to Avogadro's number.
He hoped to kill off all of that 'energist' nonsense
with one fell swoop, using Nobel's double weight.
But his little plot failed.
Planck's work was seen as too speculative by his collegues,
and only Rutherford got the prize.
