The Bohr Atom

Mr. Andersen explains the development of atomic theory, focusing on Niels Bohr's model. He discusses how Bohr addressed the limitations of Rutherford's model by introducing quantized energy levels for electrons. This model helped explain the discrete spectra observed in high-energy atoms. The video also covers the relationship between atomic structure and the periodic table, highlighting the role of electrons in determining atomic properties.
