nucleus?
Bohr Model
 Bohr
claimed that electron can have only
certain energy levels.

way we describe
the energy levels is by
using quantum
numbers ‘n’
 Only orbits where
n =positive integer
are permitted.

Energy Transitions in Atoms
Energy of photon = Energy lost by electron
hf = Ei - Ef
Calculating Wavelengths of Emitted Light
hf = Ei - Ef
E3 ---> E2:
Ei = - 1.51 eV
Ef = - 3.40 eV
-----------------------------hf = - 1.51 - (-3.40)
= 1.89 eV
----------------------------- = (1240 eV-nm) / E
= 1240 / 1.89
= 656 nm
