Chapter 5 #1) Why did Rutherford’s atomic model need to be replaced?
Rutherford’s model looked a bit like a solar system
It didn’t explain such things as why elements give off light of specific colors when heated: Example: fireworks, iron
#2) What was the basic new proposal in the Bohr model?
That electrons each contain a specific amount of energy as defined by their orbit. The further out the electron orbits, more energy the electron has. Orbits are fixed distances.
#3) What does the quantum mechanical model determine about electrons in atoms?
That electrons can only orbit in very specific energy levels, they cannot orbit BETWEEN these levels.
#4) How do two sublevels of the same principle energy level differ from each other?
P-orbital S-orbital Play Chem ASAP from PHschool The orbitals are shaped differently.
#5 How can electrons in an atom move from one energy level to another?
BohrModel
Bohr Model
#6) The energies of electrons are said to be quantized. Explain what that means.
Each electron contains in its orbital a very specific amount or “quantum” of energy. If an electron gains or loses energy, it must change its orbital.
