What model do scientists use today to describe how electrons move around the nucleus?
Today they us the theory that electrons move freely in different levels called electron shells. Which make up an electron cloud
How is the modern atomic theory different from Daltons atomic theory?
In Dalton's theory the electrons in the atom travel in a one layered orbital rotation around the nucleus, in the modern, or electron cloud, theory the electrons travel in a more radical patterned movement while still staying in their respected energy levels.
According to bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom is it possible for the electron to orbit the nucleus with any possible energy?
It's actually completely opposite, electrons can have only specific energies (non-continuous) when the electrons are a part of an atom(s).
What is the difference between free electron theory and nearly free electron theory?
free electron model not take into account the potential neither the electron interaction. nearly free electron take into account the potential.J.C. Aguiar
What element has 1 electrons?
Technically, ANY atom could have "one electrons" or, as I suspect you mean to ask, one electron. In its uncharged state, a protium atom, also known as a hydrogen-1 atom, is the only atom posessing a single electron, but in theory any atom could have any number of its electrons stripped off, and be left with only one (or even none).
What is the name of the scientist who discovered the electron?
The question probably refers to 'the modern theory of electron clouds'. This theory is now almost a century old and is called quantum mechanics. It describes the states of electrons in an atom as 'electron clouds', so-called orbitals, which indicate the probability distribution of the electron wave function. In contrast to a naive classical picture that pictures electrons as point-like particles with given velocity and position, the quantum mechanical picture describes electrons as smeared-out matter waves following the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
What is quantum free electron theory of metal?
Classical free electron theory could not explain many physical properties. In 1928, Sommerfeld developed a new theory applying quantum mechanical concepts and Fermi-Dirac statistics to the free electrons in the metal. This theory is called quantum free electron theory.
What model do scientists use today to describe how electrons move around the nucleus?
Today they us the theory that electrons move freely in different levels called electron shells. Which make up an electron cloud
According to atomic theory electrons are usually found?
in the energy levels. energy levels are in the electron cloud.
Electrons paths cannot be predicted?
no. the current theory is that the electrons move randomly in the outer most part of a molecule in part called the "electron cloud" which is just swirling mass of electrons with no predictable path
What theory predicts molecular shapes based on the extent of electron repulsion?
Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory
Do acids accept a pair of electrons?
according to Lewis theory acids act as electron pair acceptors bases act as electron pair donors
What is the smallest of the 3 particles of an atom?
Out of protons, neutrons, and electrons, electrons are the smallest.
What is the conventional theory of electricity?
Conventional Electrical theory (simplified) states that electricity flows from positive to negative in contrast to Electron Theory which supposes negative to positive flow of electrons.
What are the main three parts of an electrons used in the current atomic theory that describe an electrons location?
An electron configuration shows the distribution of electrons among the subshells. Each number shows the principal quantum number, or shell, the subshell and finally the orbital of the electron.
What is free electron theory assumptions?
according to classical free electron theory of electronsan atom contains an electrons in its outer most orbits and metal contains such type of atomsfree electrons moves randomly entire the volume of the metal like the gas molecules in containerwhile random motion of moving of electrons they collide with fixed positve ions or wiht themselves and the collisions formation due to collisions is elastic collosion that means there is no loss of energy.
What is the theory states that electrons flow from negative to positive?
You don't need a "law of current" from that, but you can derive it from Ohm's Law.
