Dalton’s Atomic Theory

All elements are consists of very small invisible particles, called atoms. Atoms of same element are exactly same and atoms of di erent element
are di erent.

Every atom is uniformly positive charged sphere of radius of the order of 10-10 m, in which entire mass is uniformly distributed and negative
charged electrons are embedded randomly. The atom as a whole is neutral.

Limitations of Thomson’s Atomic Model

1. It could not explain the origin of spectral series of hydrogen and other atoms.

2. It could not explain large angle scattering of α – particles.

Rutherford’s Atomic Model

On the basis of this experiment, Rutherford made following observations

(i) The entire positive charge and almost entire mass of the atom is concentrated at its centre in a very tiny region of the order of 10-15 m, called
nucleus.

(ii) The negatively charged electrons revolve around the nucleus in di erent orbits.

Distance of Closest Approach

ro = 1 / 4π εo . 2Ze2 / Ek

where, Ek = kinetic energy of the cc-particle.

Impact Parameter

The perpendicular distance of the velocity vector of a-particle from the central line of the nucleus, when the particle is far away from the
nucleus is called impact parameter.

Impact parameter

where, Z = atomic number of the nucleus, Ek = kinetic energy of the c-particle and θ = angle of scattering.

Rutherford’s Scattering Formula

where, N(θ) =number of c-particles, Ni = total number of α-particles reach the screen. n = number of atoms per unit volume in the foil, Z = atoms
number, E = kinetic energy of the alpha particles and t = foil thickness

Limitations of Rutherford Atomic Model

(i) About the Stability of Atom According to Maxwell’s electromagnetic wave theory electron should emit energy in the form of
electromagnetic wave during its orbital motion. Therefore. radius of orbit of electron will decrease gradually and ultimately it will fall in the
nucleus.

(ii) About the Line Spectrum Rutherford atomic model cannot explain atomic line spectrum.

Bohr’s Atomic Model

Electron can revolve in certain non-radiating orbits called stationary or bits for which the angular momentum of electron is an integer multiple

The radiation of energy occurs only when any electron jumps from one permitted orbit to another permitted orbit.

Energy of emitted photon

hv = E2 – E1

where E1 and E2are energies of electron in orbits.

Radius of orbit of electron is given by

r = n2h2 / 4π2 mK Ze2 ⇒ r ∝ n2 / Z

where, n = principle quantum number, h = Planck’s constant, m = mass of an electron, K = 1 / 4 π ε, Z = atomic number and e = electronic
charge.

Velocity of electron in any orbit is given by

v = 2πKZe2 / nh ⇒ v ∝ Z / n

Frequency of electron in any orbit is given by

v = KZe2 / nhr = 4π2Z2e4mK2 / n3 h3

⇒ v prop; Z3 / n3

Kinetic energy of electron in any orbit is given by

Ek = 2π2me4Z2K2 / n2 h2 = 13.6 Z2 / n2 eV

Potential energy of electron in any orbit is given by

Ep = – 4π2me4Z2K2 / n2 h2 = 27.2 Z2 / n2 eV

⇒ Ep = ∝ Z2 / n2

Total energy of electron in any orbit is given by

E = – 2π2me4Z2K2 / n2 h2 = – 13.6 Z2 / n2 eV

⇒ Ep = ∝ Z2 / n2

Wavelength of radiation emitted in the radiation from orbit n2 to n1 is given by

In quantum mechanics, the energies of a system are discrete or quantized. The energy of a particle of mass m is con ned to a box of length L
can have discrete values of energy given by the relation

Hydrogen spectrum contains ve series

(i) Lyman Series When electron jumps from n = 2, 3,4, …orbit to n = 1 orbit, then a line of Lyman series is obtained.

This series lies in ultra violet region.

(ii) Balmer Series When electron jumps from n = 3, 4, 5,… orbit to n = 2 orbit, then a line of Balmer series is obtained.

This series lies in visual region.

(iii) Paschen Series When electron jumps from n = 4, 5, 6,… orbit to n = 3 orbit, then a line of Paschen series is obtained.

This series lies in infrared region

(iv) Brackett Series When electron jumps from n = 5,6, 7…. orbit to n = 4 orbit, then a line of Brackett series is obtained.

This series lies in infrared region.

(v) Pfund Series When electron jumps from n = 6,7,8, … orbit to n = 5 orbit, then a line of Pfund series is obtained.

This series lies in infrared region.

Wave Model

It is based on wave mechanics. Quantum numbers are the numbers required to completely specify the state of the electrons.
