Question

The Bohr model of the atom suggest that the protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and the electrons orbit the nucleus much like planets around the sun. How is our modern model of the atom different from this model

Answer 1

The Bohr model suggested that electrons orbited the nucleus in circular paths where as the modern model views the atom to consist of positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the modern model, the nucleus contains two sub-atomic particles, the protons which are positively charged and the neutrons which are not charged.According to Bohr's model,the electron in a hydrogen atom travel around the nucleus in a circular orbit. In the modern model, electrons do not move around nucleus around circular obits.
