Which statement is correct about the location of electrons in an atom according to the quantum mechanical model? a) electrons are located inside the nucleus. b) electrons are located in the cloud-like areas around the nucleus. c) electrons are located in orbits around the nucleus. d) electrons are located at great distances from the nucleus.

B) Electrons are located in the cloud-like areas around the nucleus.

Explanation:

The quantum mechanical model of the atom does not consider the path through which an electron travels. It rather estimates the probability of where electrons can be found at each energy level.

The region of maximum probability of where an electron is located is sometimes called an electron cloud or orbital. Each orbital of an atom and the electrons accomodated are described completely by a set of four quantum numbers.
