In this post you will learn about valence electrons and valency, isotopes, isobars and fractional atomic masses of certain elements. What are valance electrons? The electrons in the outermost shell of an atom take part in all the chemical reactions given by that element. Thus, these electrons describe the combining capacity or valency of an

In this post we will discuss about Bohr’s model of an atom, Bohr-Bury scheme, how to write electronic configuration of an element and nuclear composition. Rutherford’s nuclear model of atom, although a great contribution to the science, could not explain certain observations. A brilliant description of atomic structure was proposed by Neil Bohr in 1913.
