Lec: Bohr Model (Planetary Model). The electrical forces between the negatively charged electrons and the positively charged protons inside the nucleus cause the electrons to spin around the nucleus. Niels Bohr discovered that the electrons traveled in orbits around the nucleus like planets.

The electrical forces between the negatively charged electrons and the positively charged protons inside the nucleus cause the electrons to spin around the nucleus.
Niels Bohr discovered that the electrons traveled in orbits around the nucleus like planets.
The area in which electrons are orbiting around the nucleus is called the electron shells. Each electron shell can only hold a certain number of electrons. Once the shell is filled, the next outer shell begins to get filled.
Electron Shell 1st shell: 2 electrons 2nd shell: 8 electrons 3rd shell: 8 electrons 4th shell: 18 electrons 5th shell: 18 electrons 6th and 7th: 32 electrons
Mg:2 electrons in the 1st, 8 electrons in the 2nd, and 2 electrons in the 3rd.
Cl:2 electrons in the 1st, 8 electrons in the 2nd, and 7 electrons in the 3rd.
