Describe Bohr’s model of the atom. How did Neils Bohr explain the stability of atom?
Open in App
Solution
The Bohr’s model of the atom is described by several statements:
1. The electrons revolving around the atomic nucleus lie in the concentric circular orbits at certain distance from the nucleus.
2. Energy of an electron is constant while it is in a particular orbit.
3.When an electron jumps from an inner orbit to an outer orbit it absorbs energy equal to the difference of its energy level and when it jumps from an outer orbit to an inner orbit it emits energy equal to the difference of its energy level.
