Bohr Model of the atom

The Bohr Model of the atom revolutionized our understanding of atomic structure in the early 20th century. Proposed by Danish physicist Niels Bohr in 1913, this model provided a quantum mechanical explanation for the behavior of electrons within an atom. By incorporating principles of quantized energy levels and angular momentum, the Bohr Model offered a framework for predicting the spectral lines of hydrogen and other elements. This introduction explores the foundational concepts of the Bohr Model and its significance in shaping modern quantum theory.
