Rutherford's model, in which electrons move around a tightly packed, positively charged
nucleus, successfully explained the results of scattering experiments, but was unable to explain
discrete atomic emission—that is, why atoms emit only certain wavelengths of light. Bohr then
postulated that electrons can only move in certain quantized orbits; this model was able to
explain certain qualities of discrete emission for hydrogen, but failed completely for other
elements. Schrödinger’s model, in which electrons are described not by the paths they take but
by the regions where they are most likely to be found, can explain certain qualities of emission
spectra for all elements.
