The video discusses Bohr's theory, which explains the stability of atoms and the quantization of electron orbits. It highlights the limitations of Bohr's theory, such as its inability to explain fine spectra, multi-electronic systems, and phenomena like the Zeeman and Stark effects. The video also introduces wave-particle duality, suggesting that if electrons behave as waves, Bohr's concept of circular orbits is incorrect.
