What does atomic model mean?

Answer 1

It is called the "nuclear model"

Rutherford concluded that

1. Atom is mostly empty space

2. Atom has a nucleus at its center

3. Electrons surround the nucleus

Answer 2

The simplified atomic model is the simplified version of the Rutherford - Bohr atomic model.

The simplified atomic model has 5 parts

1. The Elements Symbol Ex: Ne (Neon)
2. Under the symbol is a circle that represents the nucleus of the atom.
3. In the circle is The number of protons and neutrons. For Neon it's 10pt(protons) and 10no (neutrons)
4. Then there's the shells in which the electrons orbit. These are represented by a quarter circle (usually on the right side of the circle) For neon it would have 2
5. The final part is the number of electrons that orbit each shell, which is written at the bottom of each quarter circle. For Neon their are 10 electrons. 2 on the first shell and 8 on the last or second. They are written as so 2e- for the first shell and 8e- for the last or second shell.
