Wave model

Redirected from Atom/Wave model

The wave model of the atom takes the basic idea of the Bohr model of the atom where there is a small dense nucleus surrounded by electrons, but the electrons are represented by a probability distribution instead of by discrete mathematical points. Thus they are often described as the "electron cloud".
