Explain the postulates of Bohr’s atomic model.
The main postulates are:
- The revolve around the in a specific orbit, and these orbits are associated with definite energies called shells or energy levels.
- The do not emit energy when revolving in a specific orbit.
- These shells or energy levels or orbits are represented by the letters K, L, M, N or by the numbers \(1, 2, 3, 4\).
- \((n=l)\) is closest to the nucleus and is associated with the .
- The energy of each orbit or shell is a fixed quantity and the energy is quantized.
