Question 10 • GA-GSE Physical Science A

What did Bohr’s model of the atom include that Rutherford’s model did not have?

Answer
A
a nucleus
B
energy levels
C
electron clouds
D
smaller particles

Explanation

Rutherford’s model included a small, positively charged nucleus with electrons around it, but it did not explain how electrons were arranged by energy. Bohr added specific energy levels, or shells, that electrons occupy around the nucleus. Therefore, the correct choice is energy levels.
