But there are limits to Bohr’s theory. It cannot be applied to multielectron atoms, even one as simple as a two-electron helium atom. Bohr’s model is what we call
semiclassical . The orbits are quantized (nonclassical) but are assumed to be simple circular paths (classical). As quantum mechanics was developed, it became clear that there are no well-defined orbits; rather, there are clouds of probability. Bohr’s theory also did not explain that some spectral lines are doublets (split into two) when examined closely. We shall examine many of these aspects of quantum mechanics in more detail, but it should be kept in mind that Bohr did not fail. Rather, he made very important steps along the path to greater knowledge and laid the foundation for all of atomic physics that has since evolved.

A hypothetical one-electron atom in its highest excited state can only emit photons of energy 2
E , 3
E , and 5
E before reaching the ground state. Which of the following represents the complete set of energy levels for this atom?
The Lyman series of photons each have an energy capable of exciting the electron of a hydrogen atom from the ground state (energy level 1) to energy levels 2, 3, 4, etc. The wavelengths of the first five photons in this series are 121.6 nm, 102.6 nm, 97.3 nm, 95.0 nm, and 93.8 nm. The ground state energy of hydrogen is −13.6 eV. Based on the wavelengths of the Lyman series, calculate the energies of the first five excited states above ground level for a hydrogen atom to the nearest 0.1 eV.
The ground state of a certain type of atom has energy –
E0 . What is the wavelength of a photon with enough energy to ionize an atom in the ground state and give the ejected electron a kinetic energy of 2
E0 ?
An electron in a hydrogen atom is initially in energy level 2 (
E2 = -3.4 eV). (a) What frequency of photon must be absorbed by the atom in order for the electron to transition to energy level 3 (
E3 = -1.5 eV)? (b) What frequency of photon must be emitted by the atom in order for the electron to transition to energy level 1 (
E1 = -13.6 eV)?
The planetary model of the atom pictures electrons orbiting the nucleus in the way that planets orbit the sun. Bohr used the planetary model to develop the first reasonable theory of hydrogen, the simplest atom. Atomic and molecular spectra are quantized, with hydrogen spectrum wavelengths given by the formula
where
is the wavelength of the emitted EM radiation and
is the Rydberg constant, which has the value
The constants
and
are positive integers, and
must be greater than
.
Bohr correctly proposed that the energy and radii of the orbits of electrons in atoms are quantized, with energy for transitions between orbits given by
where
is the change in energy between the initial and final orbits and
is the energy of an absorbed or emitted photon. It is useful to plot orbital energies on a vertical graph called an energy-level diagram.
Bohr proposed that the allowed orbits are circular and must have quantized orbital angular momentum given by
where
is the angular momentum,
is the radius of the
orbit, and
is Planck’s constant. For all one-electron (hydrogen-like) atoms, the radius of an orbit is given by
is the atomic number of an element (the number of electrons is has when neutral) and
is defined to be the Bohr radius, which is
Furthermore, the energies of hydrogen-like atoms are given by
where
is the ground-state energy and is given by
Thus, for hydrogen,
The Bohr Theory gives accurate values for the energy levels in hydrogen-like atoms, but it has been improved upon in several respects.

Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded
