worked on it and named this model as Rutherford’s planetary model of atom in 1911. In 1913, Niels

slow down and ultimately comes to rest and then after
being deflected through 180° retrace their path.
Electron Orbits
The Rutherford nuclear model of the atom
atom as an electrically neutral sphere consisting of a
very small, massive and positively charged nucleus at
the centre surrounded by the revolving electrons in
their respective dynamically stable orbits.
The electrostatic force of attraction (F,) between the
revolving electrons and the nucleus provides the
requisite centripetal force (F,) to keep them in their
orbits. Thus, for a dynamically stable orbit in a
H-atom,

poht’s Model of Hydrogen Atom
smbined classical and early quantum concepts
noms theory in the form of three postulates
are as follows
Bohr’s first postulate was that an electron in an
‘tom could revolve in certain stable orbits without
ine emission of radiant energy, contrary to the
predictions of electromagnetic theory. According to
‘iis postulate, each arom has certain definite stable
‘tates in which it can exist and each possible state
nas definite total energy. These are called the
stationary states of the atom.
ji) Bohr’s second postulate states that the electron
revolves around the nucleus only in those orbits for
‘which the angular momentum is some integral
multiple of 4/27, where h is the Planck’s constant
63 x10™™ J-s).
Thus, the angular momentum (L) of the orbiting
electron is quantised,
ole

As, angular momentum of electron = mor

+. For any permitted (stationary) orbit
‘mor
an
where, = any positive integer 1, 2, 3,
Ieis also called principal quantum number.
(ii) Bohr’s third postulate states that an electron mi
make a transition from one of its specified
non-radiating orbits to another of lower energy.
When ic does so, a photon is emitted having energy
cequal to the energy difference between the initial
and final states
The frequency of the emitted photon is given by
w= E,-Ey
where, E, and Ey are the energies of the initial and
final states and E, > Ey.
Bohr’s Radius of Hydrogen Atom
According to Niels Bohr (a Danish physicist) electron
revolves around nucleus in stationary orbits. In these
orbits electron does not radiate energy.
The radius of mth orbit of the H-atom,
z
eh
1m,
where, €5 = permittivity of vacuum
b= planck’s constant
m, = mass of electron and
nis also known as principal quantum number
for n= Land putting values of constants, we get
885 x 107 x 663 x 10
for 3 12
314 x91 x 107 x (16 x 10")
29 x 10" m= 053A
This is called Bohr radius
Since, -.r, = 053 x 2°A, the radius of the second orbit
of H-atom will be (4 x 0.53) A and that of the third
orbit (9 x 0.53) A.

thydrogen atoms are given by

first electron orbit is 0.53 A. What will be the radius of the
third orbit and the first orbit of singly ionised helium atom?
