The modern model of the atom describes electrons in a little less specific detail than earlier models did. Why is it that being less sure about the placement of electrons in an atom is actually an improvement over earlier models?
A.)Electrons do not follow specific paths, so describing the area where an electron is likely to be is more scientifically
accurate,
B.)Electrons were thought to be negatively charged, but now scientists know that their charge depends on their energy
level.
C.)The modern model is based on mathematical equations, so the results become less clear when the decimals are
rounded.
D.)The position of electrons in atomic models has changed so much that it is better to have a less specific model than
to be wrong again.

What best explains whether bromine (br) or neon (ne) is more likely to form a covalent bond? bromine forms covalent bonds because it has seven valence electrons, but neon has eight valence electrons and already fulfills the octet rule. bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons. neon forms covalent bonds because it can share its valence electrons, but bromine has seven valence electrons and can gain only one more electron. neon forms covalent bonds because it has only two electron shells, but bromine has many electron shells and will lose electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule.
