Ohh.
Now in 1920 this Scientist;Erwin Schrรถdinger vex and scatter everywhere with his new hypothesis.๐ค
Erwin Schrรถdinger was a revolutionary physicist who used Heisenberg’s
uncertainty principle to come up with the atomic model that we still use today.
SCHRรDINGER’S ATOMIC MODEL (AKA THE CLOUD MODEL)
After doing a lot of work he concluded these salient points am going to alight now.
They include:
1. An electron does not travel in an exact orbit๐
2. We can predict where it will probably be๐
3. We cannot say for certain where it is, but only where it ought to be.๐
4. The type of probability orbit is dependent on the energy level described by Bohr☺
Let's now summarize what we know of atoms.
The smallest part of an element is called an atom
Each atom (of an element) is different in structure from
other atoms (of other elements)
An atom can be divided in smaller subatomic particles:
Protons, Electrons and Neutrons
The nucleus is the centre of an atom. It contains protons and neutrons.
Electrons orbit the nucleus
As we go up the periodic table, an electron and
proton is added.
Electrons occupy a certain energy level (of a
certain size)
Once the energy level is full, a new level begins
Within each of these levels are specials types
of orbitals. These depend on the energy level
Each orbital can contain two electrons
The SCHRรDINGER’S model is the most recent for now. For exams sake. Though a lot of work are still put in just to discover the true structure of atom๐๐
Hmm. We have successfully learn History of atom. Thanks for the follow up. Comment the topics you will like antimony to explain. And don't forget to follow so as to stay in touch with us.
