Question

unit 3 chem l test 2526
which set of atomic models shows the correct order from the earliest to the most recent?

Explanation:

The earliest atomic model is the Dalton's solid - sphere model (represented by the gold - colored sphere). Then came the Thomson's plum - pudding model (red circle with a cross). After that is the Rutherford's nuclear model (white circle with a small central mass). Next is the Bohr's model (white circle with orbiting electrons around a central mass). The most recent is the quantum mechanical model (blue - colored cloud - like).

Answer:

The last option (golden sphere, red cross - circle, white circle with central mass and some dots, white circle with orbiting electrons around central mass, blue cloud - like) shows the correct order from earliest to most recent.
