What is the significance of the electron cloud model?

Back

The electron cloud model describes the probable locations of electrons around the nucleus, emphasizing their wave-like behavior.

How did Dalton's atomic theory change the understanding of matter?

Back

Dalton's atomic theory established that matter is composed of indivisible atoms, each unique to its element.

What evidence did Chadwick provide for the existence of neutrons?

Back

Chadwick provided evidence for the existence of neutrons through experiments that showed a neutral particle in the nucleus.
