Bohr model of the atom was proposed by Neil Bohr in 1915. It came into existence with the modification of Rutherford’s model of an atom. Rutherford’s model introduced the nuclear model of an atom, in which he explained that a nucleus (positively charged) is surrounded by negatively charged electrons. Bohr modified this atomic structure model by explaining that electrons move in fixed orbital’s (shells) and not anywhere in between and he also explained that each orbit (shell) has a fixed energy level. Rutherford basically explained nucleus of an atom and Bohr modified that model into electrons and their energy levels.Postulates of Bohr’s Model of an Atom\tIn an atom, electrons (negatively charged) revolve around the positively charged nucleus in a definite circular path called as orbits or shells.\tEach orbit or shell has a fixed energy and these circular orbits are known as orbital shells.\tThe energy levels are represented by an integer (n=1, 2, 3…) known as the\xa0quantum number. This range of quantum number starts from nucleus side with n=1 having the lowest energy level. The orbits n=1, 2, 3, 4… are assigned as K, L, M, N…. shells and when an electron attains the lowest energy level it is said to be in the ground state.\tThe electrons in an atom move from a lower energy level to a higher energy level by gaining the required energy and an electron moves from a higher energy level to lower energy level by losing energy.
