What statement about the modern model of the atom is not true
|
|
the precise location of the electrons can not be predicted
|
|
|
electrons can be found between energy levels
|
|
|
electrons are most likely to be found in orbitals

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The modern model of atomic structure is called the “electron cloud” model. Edwin Schrodinger, an Austrian physicist, proposed that electrons do not travel in static, or fixed paths. Instead, electrons travel in regions called electron clouds.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, option (A) is correct., atoms are not able to exist independently is not true about an atom.
Detailed explanation-3: -The main problem with Bohr’s model is that it works very well for atoms with only one electron, like H or He+, but not at all for multi-electron atoms.
Detailed explanation-4: -Erwin Schrödinger proposed the quantum mechanical model of the atom, which treats electrons as matter waves.
