we ll go through each one.. 
what u know about Dalton's atomic model?
(clue he didn't have any atomic model :D :D)

anonymous · Answer

I know nothing about any of them

anonymous · Answer

Its on my pre assesment so I havent learned it yet

anonymous · Answer

don't u know dalton was the one who coined the hypothetis that atoms are indivisible?

mikeyymonroe · Answer

cant really help you here but what i know its that if we are talking about waves and atoms then De Broglies model is what your looking for. he created the wave model.

anonymous · Answer

so Dalton is out of the picture

mikey u are right ^_^.. he did came up with particle's exhibiting wave properties.. very good :P

mikeyymonroe · Answer

why thank you, i tip my hat to you sir. -tips my non-exsistant hat- and in my opinoin id go with D, the current model, but thats just me.

mikeyymonroe · Answer

this one represents the electron cloud but i wouldnt say that the electrons are moving in a wave pattern more of a circular motion.

anonymous · Answer

it talks about things called as ORBITALS.. and that is basically the wave model

so what would your answer me @Mashy ?
