What I Have Learned

1. State the difference between Niels Bohr's Planetary Model and Erwin Schrodinger's quantum
mechanical model of the atom?

The electron is represented as a particle in fixed orbits around the nucleus in the Bohr Model. The
electron is mathematically described as a wave in the Quantum Mechanical Model. The electron
possesses both particle and wave qualities.
The Bohr model was a one-dimensional model that employed a single quantum number to represent
electron dispersion in the atom. The only significant information was the size of the orbit, which was
specified by "n," the fundamental quantum number.

Schrodinger's model (Quantum Mechanical Model) enabled the electron to exist in three dimensions. To
explain the distribution of electrons in the atom, three coordinates, or three quantum numbers, were
necessary.
