  • A. translator
  • B. spin
  • C. orbital
  • D. vibrational
Correct Answer: Option C - The rotation of the electron in an atom, Rutherford explained that nuclear stability is like a Solar System, the electrons revolve like planet on around circular path, these circular paths are called orbits. Thus electrons move around the nucleus in orbital motion.
