M3 part 2 Flashcards
The model aims to explain the stability of the atom:
Bohr Model of the Atom
characteristics of Bohr Model of the Atom
- presence of fixed circular orbits or energy levels
- ground state will have the electrons in constant energy
- light energy can be absorbed and be emitted by electrons
The orbits in Bohr Model are
quantized energy levels
There is a specific
amount of energy
required for each
distance and this energy _________ when going
farther away from the
nucleus.
increases
characteristics of electron in bohr model
● Electrons are originally at its ground state.
● Electrons can absorb energy and will become excited.
Electrons jump to higher energy levels when excited.
● Electrons can then relax and go back to its ground state.
This will give off energy that has a specific wavelength and
color.
The emitted light from
relaxation can be
detected resulting to
spectral lines
These will give the
distinct color that we
see when metals are
heated or when light is
being reflected by
matter
spectral lines
The Balmer series of spectral lines was able to identify the
presence of orbitals. The spectroscopic data were described
Erwin Schrödinger (Cloud model)
spectroscopic data
○ sharp – s orbital
○ principal – p orbital
○ diffused – d orbital
○ fundamental – f orbital
