The Bohr Model of Hydrogen Atom

Light absorbed or emitted is from electrons moving between energy levels

Only certain energies are observedTherefore, only certain energy levels exist

Energy levels are Quantized

Hydrogen Energy Levels

Constant = Rhc = 2.18 x 10-18 JR = Rydberg constant = 1.0974 x 107 m-1

h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 x 10-34 Jsc= velocity of light in vacuum = 3.0 x 108 m/s

A Revolutionary Idea: Matter Waves

All matter acts as particles and as waves.Macroscopic objects have tiny waves- not observed.

Wave nature only becomes apparent when object is VERY lightFor electrons in atoms, wave properties are important.deBroglie Equation:

h

mv

Matter waves- Examples

Macroscopic object: 200 g rock travelling at 20 m/s has a wavelength:

Electron inside an atom, moving at 40% of the speed of light (0.4 x 3x108m/s):

h

m ⋅v=6.626x10−34 J ⋅s

(0.2kg)(20m /s)=1.66x10−34m

=h

m ⋅v=

6.626x10−34 J ⋅s

(9.11x10−31kg)(0.4)(3.0x108m /s)= 6.06x10−12m = 0.006nm

Can see matter waves in experiments
