Problem 69

Given information

The difference between the Bohr model for the hydrogen atom and the quantum-mechanical model and if the Bohr model is consistent with Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle or not.

Step-by-step explanation

Bohr's model states that the atom is a small, positively charged nucleus that is surrounded by electrons moving in the circular orbit around the nucleus.

Quantum mechanical model:- This Model of the atoms describes the wave nature of the atom. The quantum numbers are used to predict the distribution of electrons in the atom. There are four types of quantum numbers. These quantum numbers are,

• Principal quantum number   
• Angular quantum number   
• Magnetic quantum number   
• Spin quantum number
