I need an IN-DETAIL description here. I need to make a model of both, but all of the pictures and descriptions I have found so far seem to look exactly the same. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?What is the difference between the Rutherford and Modern Electron cloud model of the atom?
rutherford model just says that whole mass and positive charge of electron is concentrated at its nucleaus
the electrons move around nucleaus in elliptical orbit in the same way as planets move around sun
modern electron cloud theory says (in addition to above theory ) that trajectory of electron is impossible to determine
this theory is completely based on schrodinger's equation. it tells about the most possible arrangements of electron in an atom
