A spherical electron cloud surrounding an atomic nucleus best represents what?

A spherical electron cloud surrounding an atomic nucleus best represents the probability distribution of finding electrons in an atom. This model is described by quantum mechanics and helps to visualize the regions where electrons are most likely to be found in an atom.

What is the theory that within a sub level electrons prefer to occupy their own orbital?

Hund's rule is the principle that within a sublevel, electrons prefer to occupy orbitals singly and with parallel spins before pairing up. This minimizes electron-electron repulsions and stabilizes the atom.


Paired electrons are represented by what dots?

An electron pair are two electrons which occupy the same orbital in an atom or molecule. Paired electrons are represented by two dots.
