Question
compare the modern (electron cloud) model of the atom with bohrs atomic model. which of these statements describe the two models correctly? check all of the boxes that apply. bohrs model was replaced only because of its age. bohrs model electrons cannot exist between orbits, but in the electron cloud model the location of the electrons cannot be predicted. the modern model explains all available data about atoms; bohrs model does not. the modern model is more widely accepted because it was proposed by more well known scientists.
Bohr's model was replaced due to its inability to explain all atomic - related data, not just age. In Bohr's model, electrons are in fixed orbits and can't exist between them, while in the electron - cloud model, electron location is probabilistic and can't be precisely predicted. The modern model explains more data and is more widely accepted for its accuracy, not because of the fame of the scientists who proposed it.
