State the assumptions made by Bohr governing the behavior of electrons in an atom

      

Assumptions of Bohr governing the behavior of electrons in an atom

  

Answers


Felix
1)Electrons revolve in orbits of specific radius around the nucleus without emitting radiation

2)Within each orbit, each electron has a fixed amount of energy; electrons in orbits further from the nucleus have greater energies

3)An electron may 'jump' from one orbit of high energy to another of lower energy causing the energy difference to be emitted as a photon of electromagnetic radiation such as light

4) An electron may absorb a photon of radiation and jump from a lower-energy orbit to a higher-energy one.
