List the name of 5 scientific model that explains the structure of the ATOM
Answer (1)
Five scientific models that explain the structure of the atom are: the Solid Sphere Model (Dalton's), the Plum Pudding Model (Thomson's), the Nuclear Model (Rutherford's), the Planetary Model (Bohr's), and the Quantum Mechanical Model. Here's a brief explanation of each:1. Solid Sphere Model (Dalton's):Atoms are indivisible, solid spheres. 2. Plum Pudding Model (Thomson's):Atoms are spheres with a positively charged "pudding" and negatively charged electrons embedded within. 3. Nuclear Model (Rutherford's):Atoms have a small, dense, positively charged nucleus with electrons orbiting around it. 4. Planetary Model (Bohr's):Electrons orbit the nucleus in specific, quantized energy levels or shells. 5. Quantum Mechanical Model:Electrons exist in orbitals, regions of probability, rather than fixed paths.
