Bohr saw that the quantum concept could be the answer, and he knew too, that he didn’t know enough to make a true model, so he tried something provisional, rather a new style. His propositions:
Bohr saw that the quantum concept could be the answer, and he knew too, that he didn’t know enough to make a true model, so he tried something provisional, rather a new style. His propositions:
1. Use Newton’s Laws to calculate dynamics
2. Electrons can only exist is certain special orbits called stationary states.
3. The angular momentum L of the electrons moving around the nucleus is quantized in units of h/2? defined as the symbol ? pronounced “h bar,” or L= n? .
4. When the atom makes a transition, between two states different by ??E, ??E=?f the famous “quantum jumps.”
