answers many questions about atoms.
Dalton’s 19th‑century model treated atoms as indivisible solid spheres and couldn’t explain spectra, chemical bonding, or subatomic structure. The modern quantum model (with orbitals and probability distributions for electrons) accounts for atomic spectra, electron configurations, chemical behavior and many other observations that Dalton’s model could not.
