orbit the Sun, and this is because electrons can’t be depicted as point particles. Therefore, there’s no
defined position and velocity, which is supported by Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, wherein he
stated that the electron’s velocity and location concurrently. Due to electron’s tiny amount of mass
hence there is a limitation in the precision of the position of the electrons, for they don’t have an
accurate calculation of how electrons orbit the nucleus. Back then, I really thought that the idea about
atom is simple, and if you wouldn’t dig deeper, and look at it in an easier spectrum then it isn’t that
complicated however as I look closely, I have realized that we cannot really tell when an electron will be
positioned in any given time. Thus, this provided an avenue to the quantum mechanical model of atom,
whereas the wave-particles with darker region indicate that it has a chance of more than 90% of
identifying the electron, and the lighter region represents a lower probability of finding the electron.
This contributed to locating the electrons for it is described in the 3D position.
