Q. Electrons move around the nucleus in which motion?
Answer: orbital
Notes: Electrons move around the nucleus in orbital motion. Such as motion involves the quantum mechanical motion of rigid particles (electrons in this case) about some other mass, or about themselves. Orbital motion involves translation of the center of mass rather than spin (rotation about the axis). Traditional physicists compare the movement of electrons as analogous to that of planetary motion around the sun.
