How many number of orbitals are present in each sub level?
In chemistry, sub orbitals are the paths that electrons follow in the shells. They go in this order: s (x1) p(x6) d (x10) and f (x14) (It is very important that they are in lower case) There is only 1 's' orbital in each shell. Shell 1: 's': 2 electrons Shell 2: 's' and 'p': 8 electrons. etc Remember that electrons fill up the smaller sub orbitals first, so if electrons have to choose between 'f' and 's' they will always choose 's' . Hope that helps!
Niels Bohrs' theory of the atom shows electrons moving around the nucleus in specific paths called?
Electrons orbit the nucleus in specific shells. The K shell is the closest to the nucleus, and is followed by the L, M, N, O, and P shells, which move further out as the letter increases.
What did Bohr assume about motion of electrons?
Bohr proposed that an electron is found only in specific circular paths, or orbits, around the nucleus.
How do wave mechanical orbitals differ from Bohrs orbits?
The orbits were first introduced in Bohr's theory. According to it, orbits were circular paths for electrons, around the nucleus. It is two dimensional. On the contrary, the orbitals deals with the Shrodinger's Wave Equation. They show a probable three dimensional space where a particular electron can exist around the nucleus. Further, the shapes of the orbitals are determined from the solutions of the equation.
A path of electron around the nucleus of an atom?
Electrons don't travel along a set "path". . .they're actually not really entirely particles. Electrons have properties of both particles and waves, so they tend to aggregate in certain specific areas around a nucleus called orbitals and sort of. . .vibrate around in those areas. But they don't travel in a set path, b/c they're not particles.
What atom has an electron cloud instead of orbiting electrons?
All atoms of all elements have electrons in the electron cloud (better known as orbitals). The concept of orbits (electrons moving in fixed paths) is now replaced by orbitals.
What are electrons orbitals?
Orbitals are the paths of electrons that they make, forced through opposing charges in the nucleus. Orbitals in the sense that humans use them in organizational charts and diagrams involve the theoretical placement of such electrons in order to determine an atom's properties in placement among columns in the Periodic Table, it's bonding properties, it's possibilities of polarity and in order to "sort" electrons in the atomic model, which has been developed over periods of time. A column on the Periodic Table defines number of valence (very outer ring) electrons, and the row is sorted by number of orbitals, illustrating how important a knowledge of orbitals is to the understanding of an element.
Electrons move around the nucleus in paths called what?
Orbitals. Not to be confused with orbits. They don't actually move in 'paths' either. Due to their nature, you cannot determine the exact location of an electron and still know where it will be next. (See "Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle") Orbitals actually are mathematical functions which describe the probability of finding an electron in a given space.
What is the Paths around the Nucleus called?
Electrons are said to occupy orbitals, around the atomic nucleus. They do not actually orbit in the manner that planets orbit the sun; they spread themselves out, as an electron cloud, and surround the nucleus rather than moving in an orbit.

The modern model of the atom shows that electrons are?
found in regions called orbitals
Orbit of electrons around the nucleus of an atom?
No. Quantum Theory states that we can only know the probable location of an electron. Electron Orbitals are just the three dimensional representations of the most likely location of the electron. Electron movement is not well understood and highly unpredictable.

Where are the electrons located in Bohr's atomic model?
In this model, the electrons move or orbit around the protons that are at the center of the atom. Electrons move around the nucleus, which contains the proton, in orbits that have a definite size and energy.
