mass number and atomic number of an atom
proton in nucleas, electron in regions of most probable location
medium is the matter a wave trvels through
It is an inaccurate model, because there is no way to measure the exact mass, path, and charge of an atom
the quantam wave model is derived from the work of two physicists. One was Max Planck who proposed the idea of the quanta (discrete packets of energy) and the second of Albert Einstein who proposed the idea of light having both, particle and wave like properties. Hence the name "Quantam Wave".
Quantum Theory
Well, the conventional system of quantum mechanics can also be known as the Standard Model of Particle Interaction, or the Standard Model for short.
The wave-mechanical model of the atom is required to explain the behavior of electrons in atoms, particularly their wave-like properties and the quantization of energy levels. This model integrates wave theory with the concept of particles, providing a more accurate description of the behavior of electrons within the atom. It helps explain phenomena such as electron orbitals, electron probability distributions, and the stability of atoms.
In the wave-mechanical model of the atom, orbitals are regions of space where there is a high probability of finding an electron. These orbitals define the three-dimensional shape and size of the space where an electron is most likely to be located.

The three scientists who played a major role in developing the wave mechanical model of the atom were Erwin Schrödinger, Werner Heisenberg, and Max Born. Their work revolutionized our understanding of the behavior of electrons in atoms.
Niels Bohr's "solar system" model of the atom was an attempt to explain the spectrum of the hydrogen atom. The model had a negative electron orbiting a positive proton, but the electron was only allowed to occupy particular energy levels. The model worked well, but lacked any theoretical basis. The wave mechanical model gave a reason for the restricted energy levels in terms of the wave properties of electrons. This developed into "quantum mechanics" which is probably the most important theory in modern physics.
dont no who created the wave model of an atom dont no
The wave model of an atom was proposed by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926 as part of the development of quantum mechanics. Schrödinger's wave equation described the behavior of electrons in an atom as standing waves.

The quantum mechanical model of the atom, also known as the electron cloud model, shows electrons as existing in certain regions of space called orbitals. These orbitals represent the probability of finding an electron in a specific location around the nucleus.
the wave mechanical model is the most current form of the atom. it is based on the probability of where electrons are going to be at a point in time. on diagrams it appears as a cloud around the nucleus.
Erwin Schrödinger is the scientist responsible for formulating the wave mechanics model of the atom as part of quantum mechanics. His work led to the development of mathematical equations that describe the behavior of electrons in atoms as wave functions.
