Question

Scientists made the following two observations about emission spectra: each element has a unique emission spectrum. atoms emit energy only at specific wavelengths. describe how the bohr model explains both of these observations.

Answer 1

In the Bohr model electrons in atoms can occupy allowed orbits where they do not emit energy. Exchange of energy with the surrounding environment occurs only when an electron "jumps" from an orbit to another. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer 2

In the Bohr model, electrons can exist only in certain energy levels surrounding the atom.When electrons jump from a higher energy level to a lower one, they emit light at a wavelength that corresponds to the energy difference between the levels.The energy levels in each atom are unique.
