Answer:
Electrons do not follow circular orbits around the nucleus
Explanation:
Bohr's model of the atom is a combination of elements of quantum theory and classical physics in approaching the problem of the hydrogen atom. According to Neils Bohr, stationary states exist in which the energy of the electron is constant. These stationary states were referred to as circular orbits which encompasses the nucleus of the atom. Each orbit is characterized by a principal quantum number (n). Energy is absorbed or emitted when an electron transits between stationary states in the atom.
Sommerfeld improved on Bohr's proposal by postulating that instead of considering the electron in circular orbits, electrons actually orbited around the nucleus in elliptical orbits, this became a significant improvement on Bohr's model of the atom until the wave mechanical model of Erwin Schrödinger was proposed.

Answer:
Nonmetals lose electrons to gain a negative charge and form anions, whereas metals lose electrons to gain a postive charge and form cations.
Atoms that gain or lose electrons are called ions and can have a negative charge or a postive charge.

Answer:
36.23 %
Explanation:
Let's <em>assume we have 1 mol of FeCl₂ · 4H₂O</em>. In that case we would have:
- 1 mol of FeCl₂, weighing 126.75 g (that's the molar mass of FeCl₂), and
- 4 moles of H₂O, weighing (4 * 18 g/mol) 72 g.
Now we can <u>calculate the percent by mass of water</u>:
- % mass = mass of water / total mass * 100%
- % mass =
* 100% = 36.23 %
