Electron Cloud Model

TIme Period
Research supporting the electron cloud model began to gain momentum in the mid 1920's.
What is it?
The modern electron cloud model represents where the electrons are more likely to be based on where the color is more dense on the diagram, because the electrons have a negative charge and are attracted to the nucleus' positive charge.
How the Bohr Model Differs?
The cloud model differs from the bohr model because scientists first believed that electrons orbited in their own rings like the planets. But now we know that electrons move between rings.
