02 Niels Bohr was one of the foremost scientists of


03 modern physics, best known for his substantial
contributions to quantum theory and his Nobel
04
Prize-winning research on the structure of
atoms.
01
He wanted to understand the structure
of an atom by using the scientific
02
method in performing his experiment.

SO HE QUESTIONED HIMSELF:

If the the orbits is absorbing or emitting a photon


then an electron can jump between the orbits.

He observed

data
01

02 He observed that Electrons move around a


nucleus, but only in prescribed orbits, and If
03
electrons jump to a lower-energy orbit, the
04 difference is sent out as radiation.

Bohr's starting point was to realize that classical mechanics
by itself could never explain the atom's stability. A stable
01 atom has a certain size so that any equation describing it
must contain some fundamental constant or combination of
02 constants with a dimension of length. The classical
fundamental constants--namely, the charges and the
masses of the electron and the nucleus--cannot be
03 combined to make a length. Bohr noticed, however, that the
quantum constant formulated by the German physicist Max
04 Planck has dimensions which, when combined with the
mass and charge of the electron, produce a measure of
length. Numerically, the measure is close to the known size
of atoms. This encouraged Bohr to use Planck's constant in
searching for a theory of the atom.

HE CONCLUDED THAT:
04

In conclusion with his model, electrons could jump from one orbit to
another only by emitting or absorbing energy in fixed quanta. For
example, if an electron jumps one orbit closer to the nucleus, it must
emit energy equal to the difference of the energies of the two orbits.
Conversely, when the electron jumps to a larger orbit, it must absorb a
quantum of light equal in energy to the difference in orbits.
How did this atomic theory contributed to the modern view of the atom today?

02 Bohr’s atomic theory helped future geniuses understand more about


atoms and the things of the world.The Bohr’s model helped us learn the
atom as we know now since Niels Bohr helped to overcome the problem in
03 the Rutherford’s model of an atom.
