According to Bohr's Theory for the Hydrogen Atom, certain coloredlines are emitted with a specific frequency (v); certain energy changes take place for e-.
Electrons are restricted to certain energy levels, that are, for example, quantized.
Electrons move in fixed orbits
The GROUND state is negative.
The GROUND state, n = 1, is the lowest and moststable energy state of an atom.
The EXCITED state, where n > 1, is positive and has higherenergy than the GROUND state.
In the EXCITED state of an atom, the e- stability is low.
As e - absorbs energy, it moves to a higher orbit, going into the excited state.
When e- falls back to a lower orbit, it is released as light.
Formula for electron orbital movement: (b = 2.18 x 10^-18 J, Z = nuclear charge, n = quantum numbers)
E=−bZ2/n2
Formula for emission spectrum of hydrogen: ∆E=EF−EI
Formula for possibilities of energies in a hydrogen atom: (n = infinite, and can be final or initial)En=−2.18∗10−18J(1/n2)
