-
Dalton thought atoms were solid and hard spheres. He modeled them with wooden balls
-
Negative charged atoms were embedded with a positively charged area. Atom is mainly empty space with a positively charged nucleus.
-
Electrons were orbiting around a large nucleus in this model. Most was empty space and the nucleus occupied a small part relative to the rest of the atom
-
negatively charged atoms orbit a nucleus in the middle the orbits were not planar
-
Each orbit has an energy associated with it. Electrons occupy only certain orbits around the nucleus.
