Bohr model of roentgenium

Bohr model of roentgenium (Rg): 111 electrons in 7 shells — 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 17, 2

Roentgenium (Rg) has 111 electrons, spread over 7 shells. The diagram places them on circles around the nucleus, from the K shell — the closest — outward.

ShellElectrons
K (n = 1)2
L (n = 2)8
M (n = 3)18
N (n = 4)32
O (n = 5)32
P (n = 6)17
Q (n = 7)2

The Bohr model is a teaching picture: electrons do not travel in circular orbits, but the number of electrons per shell is exact.
