Bohr Model Practice Problems Name:______________________

Period:____
In 1943, Niels Bohr described the atom as a planetary system with electrons orbiting around the nucleus. Bohr’s
model is incomplete, but it nonetheless is helpful in understanding why some atoms are very reactive and others
are less so.

Directions: complete each of the following models using what you know about atoms. The first is completed for
you as an example.
