Changes of view of Electrons existence

Appearance of Electron's Field in aspect of Mathmatical Probability all changes about concepts of Atom's Electrons. The model of Electron Shell was really easy to explain interactions of atoms and molecules and It was adaptable to many relations of atoms and molecules. However, Some complex molecules and compound didn't follow the that model. So, people started to research about its interactions. And then, Scientists found that electrons behave like clouds and they named it Electron Clouds. It was sensational on Academy of Physics and Chemistry. These days, Quantum mechanics theme is dominate in Electrons Fields.( User:Solprin|Solprin) (talk) 05:39, 10 January 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Cannolis (talk) 06:04, 10 January 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
