How do electrons move around the atoms nucleus?

The quantum mechanical model of bonding assumes that atomic orbitals overlap and produce?
molecular orbital
Write four quantum numbers for 1s electron?
How are electrons arranged in the quantum mechanical model of an atom
Can two electron have the same set of quantum number?
Pauli's exclusion principle
Maximum number of electrons in 7 f orbitals?
What exactly did you intend to ask? Actually there can be only 2 electrons on one orbital of any level and any type. It's according to Pauli concept (no any two electrons can have the same all four quantum numbers, and these numbers are determining the level, sublevel, orbital position and the spin of electron(which can be whether 1/2 or -1/2, so that only two electrons can occupie the same orbital, no matter, which)).
What do quantum numbers of electrons represent?
The energy levels and orbitals the electrons are in

What is the modern belief about electrons and how they move?
The current theory on electron shells and their movement is the Quantum Mechanical Theory, first developed by Niels Bohr in the first part of the 20th century, with adjustments made along the way. Briefly, electrons are confined to orbitals (s, p, d, and f) which have shapes that are geometrically determined. They travel in waves, like light, and they occupy discreet energy levels (i.e., "quanta") that are also derivable by mathematics.
What are the circular patterns around the nucleus?
Although commonly depicted as circular orbits in simple diagrams of atoms, this is incorrect. The electrons occupy statistical quantum mechanical "clouds" called orbitals, each of which can contain no more than two electrons (if fully occupied the two electrons in the orbital must have opposite spin states).
