Which model correctly describes the locations of protons and electrons in the wave-mechanical model of the atom?
proton in nucleas, electron in regions of most probable location
Does the Bohr model work for every atom?
The Bohr model does not work at all for atoms having more than one electron because it does not account for interactions between the electrons.
Ability of an atom to attract electrons when the atom is in a compound?
Electronegativity
What is the most current model of how the atom is constructed?
The most current model of how the atom is constructed consists of electrons in constant motion around the nucleus, like waves in a probability field. Protons and neutrons vibrate inside the nucleus and quarks vibrate inside the protons and neutrons.
What did Ernest Rutherford's experiment prove?
We should never say that an experiment has proven something. The Rutherford gold foil experiment led to the hypothesis that an atom's positive charge is concentrated in an incredibly small space at the atom's center.
A model that shows only the valence electrons in an atom is an?
valence model
How is the modern model of an atom model different from the bohr atomic model?
The arrangements of the electrons are diffrent.
How the path of an electrons differs in Bohr's model and in the modern model of the atom?
In Bohr's model, electrons travel in a direct, determined path around the nucleus. In the modern model of the atom, electrons behave more like waves on a vibrating string. Basically the electron's path cannot be predetermined.
What are the the main particles in the modern model of an atom?
The three main particles of an atom are Electrons, Neutrons, and Protons. The Electrons orbit the core of the atom, which is made up of Protons and Neutrons.
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.
How is the electron cloud related to the modern model of an atom?
The atom where we are most likely to find an electron. this area is called the electron cloud.
In niels Bohr's model of the atom how are electrons configured?
In Niels Bohr's model of the atom, how are electrons configured?
In Niels Bohr and model of the atom how are electrons configured?
In Niels Bohr's model of the atom, how are electrons configured?
The electron cloud model describes the of electrons in an atom?
The model is applied to movement and position of electrons in the atom.
What are 3 main particles in the modern model of an atom?
The three main particles of an atom are Electrons, Neutrons, and Protons. The Electrons orbit the core of the atom, which is made up of Protons and Neutrons.
How is the modern model of an atom different from the Bohr atomic model?
In Bohr's model electrons move in a direct determined path around the nucleus. A modern model of the atom have electrons that travel around the nucleus and behave like waves and do not follow a specific path.
Model with dark bands representing energy levels shows where an atom's electrons are most likely to be?
The answer to that would be: An Electron Cloud Model
