Transparent acrylic construction
About This Product
Based on Bohr’s picture of the atom, the model helps students see where mass and charge sit in the nucleus and how electrons occupy separate energy levels. The coloured orbits make it easy to count shells and discuss electron configuration and valence in physics and chemistry lessons. Enquiries from Venezuela, Portugal, Oman, Democratic Republic of the Congo and Mongolia for the Orbit of Atom Model receive an export quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which atomic theory does the Orbit of Atom Model follow?
It is based on Bohr’s atomic theory, showing electrons moving in circular orbits around a central nucleus of protons and neutrons.
