The part of an atom that would be found outside the nucleus is the _______.?
The parts of the atom found outside the nucleus would be the electrons, or positrons if the nucleus of the atom is made of antimatter. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle shows us though that the electrons aren't found just in the space outside the nucleus, but in a probabilistic cloud, partly inside the nucleus.
How does the Bohr model and the quantum mechanical model differ?
The Bohr model of the atom describes the electrons as orbiting the nucleus in a stable circular path. The quantum mechanical model describes a probability cloud for the electron's position with respect to the nucleus, the shape of the cloud, any special orientations and the spin of the electron.
What does an electron-cloud model show?
The term "electron cloud" was coined by an American physicist named Richard Feynman. The electron cloud model is a visual representation of the possible locations of electrons in an atom. It is known that electrons are found on orbitals around the nucleus and this model visually allows us to picture the probable locations of the electrons around the nucleus.
What is the difference between Bohr model and the electron cloud model?
Bohr's model depicts electrons in orbit around the nucleus. the electron cloud model shows orbitals within which an electron most likely is at any given time (the movement of electrons are random, and sometimes they get out of their orbital...i'm not making this up!). the electron cloud model is more accurate because electrons move closer and farther away from the nucleus, while the bohr model shows them at a given radius at all times.
Do electrons orbit the nucleus like the Moon orbits the Earth?
yes it does, because they are all in a big cloud and moving
Are neutrons inside or circling the nucleus?
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom. The classical model shows them circling but in fact, their position and path is more complicated. The nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons. Protein is a molecule, not a component of atoms.
Which showed electrons in specific fixed orbits?
The Bohr model
What does a bohr model look like?
Sodium has the electron configuration 2, 8, 1. A pictorial Bohr model of this atom consists of four concentric circles, one small one for the nucleus and three for the electron orbits. The individual orbits are often labelled with their respective numbers of electrons, or small filled circles are distributed around the orbits where the number of these circles corresponds to the number of electrons. None of the complexity of the Bohr model is usually conveyed in these models. It's much easier to understand once you've seen one of these. You might take a look at the wikipedia page for sodium.
Niels Bohrs' theory of the atom shows electrons moving around the nucleus in specific paths called?
Niels Bohr's theory of the atom proposed that electrons move around the nucleus in specific, fixed paths called orbits or energy levels. These orbits have specific energy levels and are sometimes referred to as shells.
What did Niels Bohr describe electrons as?
The electrons in the Bohr's model of the atom have been compared to the planets of our solar system. While Sun has been compared to nucleus containing nutrons and protons. Make note that the path of the electrons in a stable atom is circular.
Who drew the atom as a nucleus surrounded by electrons?
Dalton 'drew' the first atom, however, this was essentially a circle with a letter in it. The popular version of the atom, as seen today, was theorized by Rutherford.
What current model shows electrons traveling in specific energy levels around a nucleus of protons and neutrons?
The current model that shows electrons traveling in specific energy levels around a nucleus of protons and neutrons is the Bohr model of the atom. In this model, electrons occupy discrete energy levels known as shells and move in orbits around the nucleus.
Does a bohr Rutherford model show protons in orbit?
Yes, the Bohr-Rutherford model depicts electrons orbiting the nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons. The model simplifies the structure of an atom by showing electrons moving in fixed orbits around the nucleus, but it does not explicitly show the protons in orbit.
What would you say if someone said to describe an atom?
The mechanical model shows the nucleus surrounded by electrons similar to the solar system. The quantum model shows a nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons shaped like a doughnut.
The part of an atom that would be found outside the nucleus is the _______.?
The parts of the atom found outside the nucleus would be the electrons, or positrons if the nucleus of the atom is made of antimatter. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle shows us though that the electrons aren't found just in the space outside the nucleus, but in a probabilistic cloud, partly inside the nucleus.

What is the outer part of the atom is called?
The parts of the atom found outside the nucleus would be the electrons, or positrons if the nucleus of the atom is made of antimatter. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle shows us though that the electrons aren't found just in the space outside the nucleus, but in a probabilistic cloud, partly inside the nucleus.
