3. After the Gold Foil Experiment
Rutherford’s proposed the
Planetary Model of Atom.
Just like the solar system, the
Nucleus lies in the center of the
atom and electron revolves
around it in their orbits

The Revolution of the electron in a circular
orbit is not expected to be stable.

6. Any particle in a circular orbit would undergo
acceleration.
During acceleration, charged particles would
radiate energy (hν).

Thus, the revolving electron would lose
energy and finally fall into the nucleus.
If this were so, the atom should be highly
unstable and hence matter would not exist
in the form that we know.

9. As the electron spiral inwards, their angular
velocities and frequency would change
continuously and so will the frequency of
the energy emitted.
Thus, they would emit a continuous
spectrum, in contrast to the line spectrum
actually observed.

11. Neil Bohr, a Danish Physicist studied
in Rutherford Laboratory since
1912.
He successfully explained the
spectrum of hydrogen atom
and presented Bohr’s
Atomic model.
He was awarded Nobel
Prize in 1922

12. Bohr’s Model of Atom
1- Electrons revolves
around the nucleus
in definite energy
levels called orbits
or shells in an atom
without radiating
energy.
2- As long as an
electron remain in a
shell it never gains
or losses energy.

orbits only due to jumping of electrons
from one energy level to another energy
level.

14. 4- The angular momentum (mvr) of an
electron is equal to nh/2π.
The angular momentum of an orbit
depends upon its quantum number
(n) and it is integral multiple of the
factor h/2π
i.e. mvr = nh/2 π
Where,
n = 1, 2, 3, 4,….

37. Defects of Bohr’s Atomic Model
1- According to Bohr, the radiation results
when an electron jumps from one energy
orbit to another energy orbit, but he did
not explained how this radiation occurs.
Prepared by: Sidra Javed
38. 2- Bohr’s theory explained the existence of
various lines in H-spectrum, but it
predicted that only a series of lines exist.
Later on it was realized that the spectral
lines that had been thought to be a
single line was actually a collection of
several lines very close to each other.
Prepared by: Sidra Javed
39. 3- Bohr’s theory successfully explained
the observed spectra for H – atom and
similar ions (He+1 , Li+2 , Be+3 etc) but it
can not explained the spectra for poly
electron atoms.

40. 4- If a substance which gives line emission
spectrum is placed in a magnetic field, the lines
of the spectrum get split up into a number of
closely spaced lines. This phenomenon is known
as Zeeman effect. Bohr’s theory has no
explanation for this effect.
Prepared by: Sidra Javed
41. 5- If a substance which gives line
emission spectrum is placed in an external
electric field, the lines of the spectrum get
split up into a number of closely spaced
lines. This phenomenon is known as Stark
effect. Bohr’s theory has no explanation
for this effect as well.
Prepared by: Sidra Javed
42. 6- Bohr suggested circular orbits of
electron around the nucleus of H – atom
but later it was proved that the motion of
electron is not in a single plane, but takes
place in three dimensional space.
Prepared by: Sidra Javed
43. 7- Bohr’s assumes that an electron in an atom is located at
a definite distance from the nucleus and is revolving
round it with definite velocity i.e. it has a fixed
momentum.
This idea is not in agreement with Heisenberg’s
uncertainty principle which states that it is impossible
to determine the exact position and momentum of a
particle simultaneously with certainty.
