What did Erwin Schrodinger discover that is used in today's models of the atom? Please answer and explain.

Sagot :

In Schrodinger's model, instead of the atom only having electrons as particles that would be placed in certain orbits of fixed energy around the positive charged nucleus, he discovered that electrons actually will behave as standing waves that will be more likely, with a higher probability, to be found in some regiouns of space, which are called orbitals.
