Electrons are said to occupy orbitals, around the atomic nucleus. They do not actually orbit in the manner that planets orbit the sun; they spread themselves out, as an electron cloud, and surround the nucleus rather than moving in an orbit.

A particle that moves around the nucleus is a what?
These particles are called electrons.
Who said Electrons travel in definite paths?
professor NEILS BOHR postulated from his discrete electron orbit theory that electrons get caught in imaginary orbits around the atomic nucleus.
What is a particle that moves around the nucleus?
Assuming that by nucleus you refer to an atom the particles circling the atoms center (protons and neutrons ) are called electrons.
What is the thin structure that surrounds and protects the nucleus?
The nuclear membrane is the thin boundary around the nucleus of a cell.
What energy level in which element moves around the nucleus?
Elements do not move around the nucleus since the nucleus is at the core of the element.
What is the organization of the subatomic particles in an atom?
The protons and neutrons are at the centre in a mass called the nucleus and the electrons revolve around the nucleus in circular paths called orbits.
Which scientist pictured the atom as having a central nucleus with electrons moving around it in well defined paths?
the paths of moving electrons are called rings or shells
Where did niels bohr think electrons could be found within an atom?
ya, i think it is in definite paths around the nucleus.
Niels Bohrs' theory of the atom shows electrons moving around the nucleus in specific paths called?
Electrons orbit the nucleus in specific shells. The K shell is the closest to the nucleus, and is followed by the L, M, N, O, and P shells, which move further out as the letter increases.
Where do you find the electrons in atoms?
In energy shells around and outside the nucleus of an atom!!!!
What scientist proposed that electrons move around the nucleus in fixed paths?
niels bohr
Where are the electrons located in Bohr's atomic model?
In this model, the electrons move or orbit around the protons that are at the center of the atom. Electrons move around the nucleus, which contains the proton, in orbits that have a definite size and energy.
Who modeled the atom with electrons that move in fixed circular paths around a dense positively charged nucleus?
Niels Bohr
Paths in which objects travel around the sun?
That is called an orbit.
What is a blur of electrons around the nucleus of an atom called?
What is a blur of electrons around the nucleus of an atom called?an electron cloud. not neutron
What was the basic new proposal in the Bohr model of the atoms?
Bohr proposed that an electron is found in circular paths, or orbits, around the nucleus, and they can only orbit at a specific fixed distance from the nucleus.
What did BOHR assume about the motion of the electron?
Bohr proposed that an electron is found only in specific circular paths, or orbits, around the nucleus.
