Atomic model theories History of the atom Leon Haxhimeri

Solid sphere model The Solid Sphere Model was the first atomic model and was developed by John Dalton in the early 19th century. He hypothesized that an atom is a solid sphere that could not be divided into smaller particles . He came up with his theory as a result of his research into gases . He realized that certain gases  only combined in specific proportions . He recognized atoms of a particular element differ than the other element.

Plum pudding model The plum pudding model is one of several historical  scientific models of the  atom. First proposed by  J. J. Thomson  in 1904  soon after the discovery of the   electron , but before the discovery of the  atomic nucleus , the model tried to explain two properties of atoms then known: that electrons are negatively charged particles and that atoms have no net electric charge. The plum pudding model has electrons surrounded by a volume of positive charge, like negatively charged "plums" embedded in a positively charged " pudding ".

Nuclear model Rutherford's atomic model became known as the nuclear model. In the nuclear atom, the protons and neutrons, which comprise nearly all of the mass of the atom, are located in the nucleus at the center of the atom. The electrons are distributed around the nucleus and occupy most of the volume of the atom.

Planetary model Following the discoveries of hydrogen emission spectra and the photoelectric effect, the Danish physicist Niels Bohr (1885-1962) proposed a new model of the atom in 1915. Bohr proposed that electrons do not radiate energy as they orbit the nucleus, but exist in states of constant energy that he called  stationary states. This means that the electrons orbit at fixed distances from the nucleus (see below). Bohr's work was primarily based on the emission spectra of hydrogen. This is also referred to as the planetary model of the atom. It explained the inner workings of the hydrogen atom. Bohr was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 1922 for his work.

Quantum model A powerful model of the atom was developed by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926. Schrödinger combined the equations for the behavior of waves with the de Broglie equation to generate a mathematical model for the distribution of electrons in an atom .
