HELP!! Use this to guide you- A model of the atom which explained the atomic emission spectrum of hydrogen was proposed by Neils Bohr. Bohr suggested that an atomic spectrum is created when the electrons in an atom move between energy levels. In Bohr’s model, electrons exist in orbits around the nucleus which only exist at fixed distances from the nucleus called energy levels. According to the Bohr model electrons can orbit at many fixed distances from the nucleus. Bohr proposed electrons orbit at fixed distances from the nucleus in stationary states, such as the ground state or excited state to explain why they did not radiate energy while orbiting the nucleus.

Calculate the energy of the photon emitted for each of the observed lines (based on its wavelength) and enter the photon's energy in the appropriate box below the wavelength. Express your calculated energy values correctly rounded to three significant figures and using Webassign's exponential notation.

Consider your answer for the wavelength problem above. What is true about the wavelength of an electron? Small wavelengths never matter. The wavelength is the same size of an atom, so it will influence the properties of the electron as the electron is also very small. The electron produces a very large wavelength that can be picked up in the FM frequency range using a car radio. The wavelength is so small so it doesn't influence the properties of the electron at all.
