What are the Defects of Bohr’s Atomic Model?

What are the Defects of Bohr’s Atomic Model? In 1913 Neil Bohr’s presented a new model for an atom, known as Bohr’s atomic model. Niels Bohr model describes an atom as a small positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in circular orbits around the positively charged nucleus like planets around the sun in …

Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle – Chemistry Notes

Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle: In 1927, Warner Heisenberg proposed the uncertainty principle. It states: “It is impossible to state both position as well as momentum of electrons accurately and simultaneously” To determine the position of electron more accurately, radiations of shorter wavelength should be used but according to de Broglie’s equation uncertainty in momentum will increase. …
