Answer 2

I'M NOT SURE SRRY

Answer 3

Bohr's orbit model is analogous to how the earth encircles the sun in a predictable fashion, you can determine the exact location and energy associated with the an electron. In the QM model, orbitals are mathematical probability functions describing where an electron is \(\sf likely\) to be found and it's energy.
