  2. Bohr model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_model

    The Bohr model is a relatively primitive model of the hydrogen atom, compared to the valence shell model. As a theory, it can be derived as a first-order approximation of the hydrogen atom using the broader and much more accurate quantum mechanics and thus may be considered to be an obsolete scientific theory .

  3. 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 ...

  4. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    The Bohr–Sommerfeld model (also known as the Sommerfeld model or Bohr–Sommerfeld theory) was an extension of the Bohr model to allow elliptical orbits of electrons around an atomic nucleus. Bohr–Sommerfeld theory is named after Danish physicist Niels Bohr and German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld .

  5. Hydrogen spectral series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_spectral_series

    The Bohr model was later replaced by quantum mechanics in which the electron occupies an atomic orbital rather than an orbit, but the allowed energy levels of the hydrogen atom remained the same as in the earlier theory. Spectral emission occurs when an electron transitions, or jumps, from a higher energy state to a lower energy state.

  6. File:Bohr Model.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bohr_Model.svg

    I created this file to be an SVG alternative to Image:Bohratommodel.png and Image:Bohr model Balmer 32.png. I did not draw the orbitals to scale like the latter diagram because I could not readily find information about the orbitals' radii. For some reason, the "+" on the nucleus is rendering off-centered. The SVG doesn't look like that.

  7. Principal quantum number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_quantum_number

    The principal quantum number was first created for use in the semiclassical Bohr model of the atom, distinguishing between different energy levels. With the development of modern quantum mechanics, the simple Bohr model was replaced with a more complex theory of atomic orbitals. However, the modern theory still requires the principal quantum ...

  8. Atomic, molecular, and optical physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic,_molecular,_and...

    One attempt to explain hydrogen spectral lines was the Bohr atom model. [ 13 ] Experiments including electromagnetic radiation and matter - such as the photoelectric effect , Compton effect , and spectra of sunlight the due to the unknown element of Helium , the limitation of the Bohr model to Hydrogen, and numerous other reasons, lead to an ...

  9. Fine-structure constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine-structure_constant

    The fine-structure constant gives the maximum positive charge of an atomic nucleus that will allow a stable electron-orbit around it within the Bohr model (element feynmanium). [20] For an electron orbiting an atomic nucleus with atomic number Z the relation is ⁠ mv 2 / r ⁠ = ⁠ 1 / 4πε 0 ⁠ ⁠ Ze 2 / r 2 ⁠.
