Question

a student makes a table to compare bohrs atom model and the quantum - mechanical model, as shown. comparison bohrs model electron is treated as a particle atom is described in one dimension. quantum mechanical model electron is treated as a wave atom is described in three dimensions. which comparison can the student add to the table?

Explanation:

In Bohr's model, electrons are in fixed - orbits (definite locations). In quantum mechanical model, electrons are described by probability distributions and not in fixed locations. This is a key difference between the two models.

Answer:

In Bohr's Model, Electron is described by the probable location in an orbital. In Quantum Mechanical Model, Electron is described as a fixed location in a discrete spot. (This statement is incorrect and can be added to show the contrast as it is opposite of the correct concept).
