According to the planetary model of an isolated atom, the nucleus that con[size=9.96001pt]tains protons and neutrons constitutes most of the mass of the atom. Electrons) w1 o$ w0 a ^4 \4 B4 N0 R+ A7 u
surround the nucleus in specific orbits. The electrons are negatively charged[size=9.96001pt]and the nucleus is positively charged. If an electron absorbs energy (in the# ?" S- i9 e9 n/ r! [0 C# x
form of a photon), it moves to orbits further from the nucleus. An electron[size=9.96001pt]transition from a higher energy orbit to a lower energy orbit emits a photon for" d( ]2 w8 m2 t/ V, ^. d H

The energy levels of the outer electrons form energy bands. In insulators, the[size=9.96001pt]lower energy band (valence band) is completely filled and the next energy s! ~5 C# ]0 N& @" ^
band (conduction band) is completely empty. The valence and conduction[size=9.96001pt]bands are separated by a forbidden energy gap.
