摘要

Bohr’s hypothesis that electrons could occupy only certain energy states within the atom solved the problem of discrete emission of spectral lines, but other fundamental questions remained unanswered. As we saw in the previous chapter, according to Bohr, electrons have discrete angular momentum; they can only be at specific distances from the nucleus, describing definite circular orbits.
