Quantum mechanical model

Cards (3)

  • Erwin Schrödinger
    Develop the quantum mechanical model, describing the elements as existing in probabilistic clouds (orbitals) rather than fixed orbits
  • Werner Heisenberg
    Introduce the uncertainty principle, stating that it is impossible to know both the position and momentum of an electron simultaneously
  • James Chadwick
    Discovered the neutron, completing the picture of the atomics basic subatomic structure
