The Bohr atomic model suggests that electrons move

• in a flat ring around a massive, positively charged center (nucleus)

• only in distinct, spherical orbits at fixed distances from the nucleus

• randomly around the nucleus

• rapidly throughout a uniform, positively charged matrix

The new branch of modern atomic science that began in the 20th century is known as

• Super Atomic Laws

• Relativity

• Plum Pudding Model

• Quantum Mechanics

• Mike and the Mechanics

In the quantum mechanical model of the atom, the spherical orbits of the Bohr model were replaced by ________________.

• Electron Arcs

• Orbitals

• Neutron Kinetics

• Quarks

The key factor that drove the development of new atomic models is

• workability

• ease of changeability

• ease of measurement

• understanability

The Bohr atomic model is still used today even though it is not entirely accurate.

• True

• False
