How do the Bohr model and the quantum mechanical model of the atom differ in how they describe electrons?

the bohr model suggests that electrons follow orbits around the nucleus. Quantum mechanics describes electrons differently and gives them different properties. It tells us where an electron is most likely to be found but no defined path of motion around the nucleus

∙ 9y agoIn Bohr's model the atom was described as a 2 dimensional structure quite like the solar system which it is not. The rings are not rings but spheres or dumbles. The exact location of the electrons cannot be found out and thus it is considered as a cloud of electron that revolve around the nucleus of an atom.

Paired electrons in the same atom will differ because of their?
spin
How does mechanical advantage differ from ideal mechanical advantage?
Mechanical advantage is determined by physical measurement of the input and output forces and takes into account energy loss due to deflection, friction, and wear. The ideal mechanical advantage, meanwhile, is the mechanical advantage of a device with the assumption that its components do not flex, there is no friction, and there is no wear.
What are five ways electromagnetic waves differ from each other?
need to describe in five ways how electronic waves differ each other
How do positively charged objects differ from negatively charged objects?
Positively charged objects have more protons than electrons. Negatively charged objects have more electrons than protons.
How do electrons microscopes differ TEM vs. SEM?
TEM gives 2D images and SEM gives 3D images.

How does the quantum-mechanical model differ from Bohrs model?
Bohr's model explains how electron transitions cause hydrogen's atomic emission spectra. The quantum model is a 3-d view of the atom, which shows an electron's energy levels and sublevels and the probability of an electron's location, proven with complex mathematics.
How does the Bohr model and the quantum mechanical model differ?
The Bohr model of the atom describes the electrons as orbiting the nucleus in a stable circular path. The quantum mechanical model describes a probability cloud for the electron's position with respect to the nucleus, the shape of the cloud, any special orientations and the spin of the electron.
Do isotopes differ by number of electrons?
Isotopes differ by the number of protons.
How do valence electrons differ from the other electrons in an atom are the outermost energy?
They do not differ in any way, except they are the 1 to 8 electrons in the highest energy ground state orbitals of that atom.
How do electrons from beta particles emission differ from electrons in a normal atoms?
The energy is different.
