Bohr's model depicts electrons in orbit around the nucleus.
the electron cloud model shows orbitals within which an electron most likely is at any given time (the movement of electrons are random, and sometimes they get out of their orbital...i'm not making this up!).
the electron cloud model is more accurate because electrons move closer and farther away from the nucleus, while the bohr model shows them at a given radius at all times.
Not exactly. An electron is an actual physical particle with a negative charge. An electron cloud is (generally) a spherical area around the nucleus of an atom that predicts where the electrons might be located.
A non-example of an electron cloud would be a single isolated electron traveling in a vacuum. In this case, there would be no cloud formation or distribution of multiple electrons around a nucleus.
Denser areas in the electron cloud represent regions where there is a higher probability of finding an electron. These areas correspond to regions of higher electron density and show where electrons are more likely to be located around the nucleus.
The term "electron cloud" was coined by an American physicist named Richard Feynman. The electron cloud model is a visual representation of the possible locations of electrons in an atom. It is known that electrons are found on orbitals around the nucleus and this model visually allows us to picture the probable locations of the electrons around the nucleus.
That would be the electron cloud. This is like the orbital model where there are electrons in each orbit level but the electron's location can not be predicted so it is said to be most likely at a point in the electron cloud.
Scientist use the electron cloud model to represent an atom.In the electron cloud model, an atom has two distinct regions-the nucleus and the electron cloud.

The Electron Cloud model
The electron cloud model best describes the organization of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.

Both the Dalton model and the electron cloud model are representations of the structure of an atom. They both describe the atom as having a nucleus at the center and electrons orbiting around it. However, the electron cloud model introduces the idea of electron probability density clouds instead of fixed orbits.
This model is called the electron cloud model. The dark bands represent regions of high probability of finding electrons, known as electron orbitals. Electrons are most likely to be found in these regions surrounding the nucleus of an atom.
