Democritius's model of the atom-that it was an indivisible-was accepted for quite a long time.

However in 1940 the layout of the electrons, protons and neutrons were worked out by Maria Goeppert-Mayer, Eugene Wigner etc. so a model that the questioner is probably imagining as the 'accepted one' could be created.

However since the electrons, protons and neutrons are made of quarks-discovered in 1964, another model of the atom was discovered.

What was the first model of the atom was developed through?

The first model of the atom was developed through the discovery of subatomic particles such as electrons, protons, and neutrons. This led to the development of the planetary model of the atom proposed by Niels Bohr in 1913.


Who created the first model of a atom?

The Australian scientist, M Vella came up with this model in the late 1900's.


What is the currently accepted atomic model?

The currently accepted atomic model is the quantum mechanical model, which describes the electron's behavior in an atom using probability distributions called orbitals. In this model, electrons do not follow fixed paths around the nucleus but are found in specific regions of space defined by these orbitals.


What is the atom model called?

The atom model is called the "Bohr model," named after Niels Bohr who proposed it in 1913. This model describes the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons in specific energy levels or orbits.


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.

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

Yes, the quantum mechanical model of the atom was proposed by Niels Bohr in 1913. He incorporated the principles of quantization into the existing model of the atom to explain the stability of electron orbits and the emission of spectral lines.
