  2. Bohr model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_model

    In atomic physics, the Bohr model or Rutherford–Bohr model was the first successful model of the atom. Developed from 1911 to 1918 by Niels Bohr and building on Ernest Rutherford 's nuclear model , it supplanted the plum pudding model of J J Thomson only to be replaced by the quantum atomic model in the 1920s.

  3. Bohr effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_effect

    The Bohr effect increases the efficiency of oxygen transportation through the blood. After hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs due to the high oxygen concentrations, the Bohr effect facilitates its release in the tissues, particularly those tissues in most need of oxygen. When a tissue's metabolic rate increases, so does its carbon dioxide ...

  4. Copenhagen interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copenhagen_interpretation

    Such experiments demonstrate that particles do not form the interference pattern if one detects which slit they pass through. [71]: 73–76 According to Bohr's complementarity principle, light is neither a wave nor a stream of particles. A particular experiment can demonstrate particle behavior (passing through a definite slit) or wave behavior ...

  5. Rutherford scattering experiments - Wikipedia

    The true radius of the nucleus is not recovered in these experiments because the alphas do not have enough energy to penetrate to more than 27 fm of the nuclear centre, as noted, when the actual radius of gold is 7.3 fm. Figure 1. Potential energy diagram for Rutherford's atom model illustrating concentration in the nucleus.

  6. Bohr model of the chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_model_of_the_chemical...

    The Bohr model of the chemical bond took into account the Coulomb repulsion - the electrons in the ring are at the maximum distance from each other. [2] Thus, according to this model, the methane molecule is a regular tetrahedron, in which center the carbon nucleus locates, and in the corners - the nucleus of hydrogen. The chemical bond between ...

  7. History of atomic theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_atomic_theory

    The Bohr model of the atom. Rutherford deduced the existence of the atomic nucleus through his experiments but he had nothing to say about how the electrons were arranged around it. In 1912, Niels Bohr joined Rutherford's lab and began his work on a quantum model of the atom. [37]: 19

  8. Quantum jump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_jump

    A quantum jump is the abrupt transition of a quantum system (atom, molecule, atomic nucleus) from one quantum state to another, from one energy level to another. When the system absorbs energy, there is a transition to a higher energy level (); when the system loses energy, there is a transition to a lower energy level.

  9. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    The theory would have correctly explained the Zeeman effect, except for the issue of electron spin. Sommerfeld's model was much closer to the modern quantum mechanical picture than Bohr's. In the 1950s Joseph Keller updated Bohr–Sommerfeld quantization using Einstein's interpretation of 1917, [6] now known as Einstein–Brillouin–Keller method.
