  1. Can we improve the Bohr model or is a new model needed for …

    Apr 10, 2009 · Bohr's model was bad experimentally because it did not reproduce the fine or hyperfine structure of electron levels. Bohr's model was bad theoretically because it didn't …

  2. Difference: Neil Bohr vs Schrodinger Model of Atom

    Aug 19, 2025 · What is the difference between Neil Bohrs Model of the atom & Schrodiners model of the atom? I know that in Schrodiners model, the atoms rotate around the nucleus in an …

  3. How did Schrodinger's model improve Bohr's model? - Physics …

    Oct 29, 2012 · Schrodinger's model of the atom improves upon Bohr's model primarily by deriving quantization from boundary conditions in his equation, rather than assuming it as Bohr did. …

  4. Why is Bohr's model of an atom limited to explaining only the …

    Jul 6, 2014 · The Bohr model gives a reasonable approximation for light atoms (not molecules!) with just a single electron, yes. It does not work well for heavy atoms due to relativistic effects …

  5. Why do we still teach Bohrs Model? - Physics Forums

    Jun 6, 2014 · Bohr's model is still taught in education systems due to its historical significance and its role in illustrating the transition from classical to quantum physics. While the model has …

  7. Understanding Bohr’s Helium Lines - Physics Forums

    Aug 16, 2019 · Introduction In a previous article “ Calculating the Balmer Alpha Line ” we mentioned how accurate predictions of the spectral lines of singly ionized Helium were of …

  8. Does Bohr's model of Hydrogen atom violate the uncertainty …

    Oct 24, 2006 · The Bohr model is semi-classical. The electron orbits the nucleus in a circle at a particular, known distance r at a known speed v. Therefore, its momentum and position are …
