What are two major shortcomings of the Bohr model of the atom?
Dec 2, 2015 · Bohr model is valid only for hydrogen since it has one electron only, however, when it was applied to other elements, the experimental data were different than the theoretical …
How does the Bohr model work? - Socratic
Apr 3, 2014 · The Bohr model is basically an atom consisting of a small positively charged nucleus with negatively charged electrons in orbit. The main points of the model are that: …
How does Bohr's model of the atom differ from Rutherford's?
Jul 22, 2014 · Thanks for your question about atomic models. Rutherford knew the electrons were outside of the nucleus and they were equal in number to the "positiveness" of the nucleus. …
How does Bohr improve Rutherford's atomic model? - Socratic
Aug 12, 2014 · Rutherford described the atom as consisting of a tiny positive mass surrounded by a cloud of negative electrons. Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in quantised …
What's wrong with Bohr's model of the atom? - Socratic
Aug 16, 2014 · The main problem with Bohr's model is that it works very well for atoms with only one electron, like H or He+, but not at all for multi-electron atoms. Bohr was able to predict the …
How many electrons go on each ring according to the Bohr model?
Mar 28, 2016 · Electrons in the Bohr model follow the number of elements in the rows of the periodic table. 2 in the first orbit 8 in the second and third ring 18 in the fourth etc... The Bohr …
How is the cloud model of the atom different from Bohr's model?
Jun 21, 2015 · Bohr's model treats electron energy levels as clearly defined orbital paths around the nucleus ( ike planets orbit the Sun). The cloud model treats the energy levels as probability …
How does the Bohr's model of the atom differ from the quantum ...
May 21, 2014 · In the Bohr Model, the electron is treated as a particle in fixed orbits around the nucleus. In the Quantum Mechanical Model, the electron is treated mathematically as a wave. …
Bohr Model of the atom - Chemistry - Socratic
Mar 11, 2014 · The model of the atom made by Neil Bohr depicts a positively charged nucleus surrounded by a negatively charged ring of electrons that travel in circular orbits. It was a large …
How would you compare and contrast the Bohr Model and the
Jun 6, 2017 · Bohr's model assumes quantized orbits in which the electrons can move without the emission of radiant energy. The electron cloud model has a similar feature of quantized orbits. …
