What makes up most if the volume of atoms?

Nothing. An atom is primarily empty space. If the nucleus of a hydrogen atom was a football, the atom itself would be the size of a football stadium, with nothing else inside but the football. There are three things that make up the volume of atoms. The three things that make up the volume of atoms are protons, electrons and neutrons.


Was the quantum mechanical model of the atom proposed by Niels Bohr?

No. Before the Bohr model ,the most accepted model was the Rutherford model of the atom. Before that there was the plum-pudding model.


What is Rutherfords model of the atom?

the nuclear model was its name. the theory behind this model is that 99.99% of the atom is empty space.the nucleus is what that is tiny and the most dense positive core.The nucleus contains protons. the nucleus is what weight the most in the atom


Whose model of the atom is most like the one you accept today?

Bohr


What does the Quantum Mechanical Model of the atom describe?

the most probable location of an electron


Who is work contributed most to the model of a atom?

You think probable to Ernest Rutherford.


How did Ernest Rutherford change the atomic model?

Before Rutherford, scientists assumed that the atom was a single particle. Rutherford presented his revolutionary, physical atomic model that suggested an atom consists of a central charge (the term 'nucleus' was coined after Rutherford's model was presented) that is surrounded, presumably, by a cloud of orbiting electrons. He showed that most of an atom's mass was located in the atom's nucleus. Rutherford's model was later improved upon by Niels Bohr, father of the Bohr-model. Rutherford made no connection to an element's atomic number and the number of protons within an atom's nucleus; however, his atomic model paved the way for the discovery of this correlation only a couple years after his model was designed.


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.


The Bohr nuclear model suggests that?

The atomic model of Bohr (1913) suppose that an atom is formed from a central electrically positive charged nucleus surrounded by electrically negative charged electrons moving on circular orbits.


What properties does Quantum Mechanical Model of the atom describe?

the most probable location of an electron


What is the difference brtween Dalton's model of an atom and the modern model of an atom?

Dalton's model of the atom was an indivisible solid sphere. We now know that most of the atom is empty space, and that atoms have a dense positively charged nucleus that contains protons and usually neutrons, and that the negatively charged electrons are found outside of the nucleus in an electron cloud composed of energy levels.


What model represents current atomic theory?

The most accurate, but not user friendly and usable model is the quantum mechanic atom model (QM model)
