- Why was Bohr's theory for the hydrogen atom initially accepted, and why was it ultimately discarded?arrow_forwardIn the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, the electron occupies distinct energy states. In one transition between energy states, an electron moves from n=1 to n=2. Is energy absorbed or emitted in the process? Does the electron move closer to or farther from the nucleus?arrow_forwardThe Bohr model works for only one electron species. Why do we discuss it in this text (what's good about it)?arrow_forward
- Which statement is true of the quantum mechanical model, but not of the Bohr model? a. Electrons orbit the nucleus in simple circular orbits, just like planets orbit the Sun. b. The exact path that an electron follows within an atom cannot be specified. c. The electron is attracted to the nucleus of the atom.arrow_forwardExplain electron from a quantum mechanical perspective, including a discussion of atomic radii, probabilities, and orbitals.arrow_forwarda Write the complete ground state electron configuration for the scandium (Z=21) atom. b Use a noble gas core to write the electron configuration of iron.arrow_forward
- According to the Bohr theory, which of the following would have the higher energy? a. An electron in an orbit close to the nucleus b. An electron in an orbit located farther from the nucleusarrow_forwardAlthough we may draw the 4s orbital with the shape of a ball, there is some probability of finding the electron outside the ball we draw. Is this statement true or false? Comment on this statement.arrow_forwardDetermine whether each statement that follows is true or false: a Electron energies are quantized in excited states but not in the ground state. b Line spectra of the elements are experimental evidence of the quantization of electron energies. c Energy is released as an electron passes from ground state to an excited state. d The energy of an electron may be between two quantized energy levels. e The Bohr model explanation of line spectra is still thought to be correct. f The quantum mechanical model of the atom describes orbitals in which electrons travel around the nucleus. g Orbitals are regions in which there is a high probability of finding an electron. h All energy sublevels have the same number of orbitals. i The 3p orbitals of an atom are larger than its 2p orbitals but smaller than its 4p orbitals. j At a given sublevel, the maximum number of d electrons is 5. k The halogens are found in Group 7A/17 of the periodic table. l The dot structure of the alkaline earths is X, where X is the symbol of element in the family. m Stable ions formed by alkaline earth metals are isoelectronic with noble gas atoms. n Atomic numbers 23 and 45 both belong to transition elements. o Atomic number 52, 35, and 18 are arranged in order of increasing atomic size. p Atomic number 7, 16, and 35 are all nonmetals.arrow_forward
