Match

Match the following

• Electrons in this model are NOT found in set paths or orbits but are found in electron clouds.

• This model of the atom shows the electrons in fixed energy levels and looks like planets orbiting the sun.

• In this model of the atom, the atom is described as mostly empty space with a + center called the nucleus. With this model, the nucleus is a tiny, dense, + charged core.

• This model of the atom is sphere of positive charge with negatively charged electrons embedded in it.

• In this model, atoms are described as indivisible (cannot be divided).
