according to the Bohr atomic model electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed orbit and don't lose their energy. this helped to overcome the limitation of Rutherford atomic model that electrons will lose energy and fall into the nucleus and the atom will seize to exist.

α–particle scattering experiment was done by Rutherford who proposed his version of the nuclear model of atoms. The characteristics of the spectrum and general characteristics of the hydrogen atom structure were first scientifically explained by Neils Bohr in 1913.

  • After the discovery of protons, Rutherford postulated the nuclear theory of the atom.
  • This hypothesis states that the electrons that surround the nucleus travel in circular pathways known as orbits at extremely high speeds.
  • Rutherford's atomic model, therefore, mimics the solar system, with the nucleus serving as the sun and the electrons as the rotating planets.
  • However, while a body is in an orbit, it accelerates.
  • In the nuclear model that describes planet-like orbits, an electron is therefore accelerating and will emit radiation, with electronic mobility providing the radiation's energy. Thus, the orbit will continue to shrink.
  • Therefore Rutherford's atomic model was rejected.
  • These results were used by Neils Bohr to improve the Rutherford model.
  • He proposed the Dual character of electromagnetic radiation which says that radiations have both wave-like and particle-like qualities.
  • Hence, Bohr's atomic model was more acceptable.
