In the modern quantum-based atomic theory what is the name given to a particular space around the nucleus in which an electron moves?
The name given to a particular space around the nucleus in which an electron moves is Orbital
An uncertainty theory used with the modern electron cloud model of the atom that says it is impossible to determine an electron's exact position and speed as it moves around?
Werner Heisenberg proposed in 1927 the uncertainty principle.

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.
What is meant by electronic theory?
Electronic theory is the theory of the behavior of the electron under various conditions including a free electron, a bound electron in either an outer or inner orbit of the atom.

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
Use the electron theory to explain how insulators and conductors work?
the same way an insulator and a conductor will work with out the electron theory!
