Who proposed that electrons move in definite orbits around the nucleus?
Niels Bohr-1913
His atomic model placed electrons in specific energy levels to explain why they did not spiral toward and collide with the nucleus

Who proposed in the wave/modern model that electrons don’t move around an atom in a definite path?
Erwin Schrodinger-1933
What was daltons model called?
