Answer

The five atomic models commonly taught are Dalton’s solid sphere model, Thomson’s plum pudding model, Rutherford’s nuclear model, Bohr’s planetary model, and the quantum mechanical model.

Each model represents a step forward in scientific understanding. Together, they show how atomic theory evolved through experimentation and improved evidence.
