Bohr's model of the atom is a system consisting of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons. How does Bohr's model explain spectral emission lines? Bohr developed a formula (shown below) that predicted the wavelength of a photon given off when an electron moves from one orbit to another orbit. His formula worked well to explain spectral emission lines in the hydrogen atom. Calculate the wavelength of light that would be emitted for the orbital transition of n= 2 to n = 1.

In qualitative terms, how does Bohr's model account for the atomic spectrum of hydrogen? More than one selection may be correct. O When a hydrogen atom absorbs energy, as it does when an electric discharge passes through it, the electron stays in the orbit having n = 1. %3D O The energy released when an electron drops from a higher to lower orbit appears as a photon with the appropriate frequency. The energy released when an electron drops from a higher to lower orbit appears as a photon with energy equal to the energy difference between the two orbits. Electrons are found in orbits of arbitrary energy. The energy released when an electron drops from a higher to lower orbit appears as a photon with an arbitrary frequency. Electron moves around the nucleus along orbits. When a hydrogen atom absorbs energy, as it does when an electric discharge passes through it, the electron is raised from the orbit having n = 1 to a higher orbit, to n = 2 or n = 3 or even higher.
Two electrons can have the same quantum numbers n=3, l=1, ml=-1. True or False
The electron configuration of an atom tells us how many electrons are in each orbital. For example, helium has two electrons in the 1s orbital. Therefore the electron configuration of He is 1s^2. What is the ground-state electron configuration of a neutral atom of cobalt? Express your answer in condensed form, in order of increasing orbital energy. For example, [He]2s^22p^2 would be entered as He][He]2s^22p^2 .
