Bohr explains his theory. |
|
| I have realized that perhaps the electrons move around the nucleus in specific orbits, kind of like planets around the sun. These orbits could probably only hold a certain amount of electrons each. | |
|
| Ok... Continue... | |

Bohr continues to explain. |
|
| When an atom gains energy, an electron jumps up to a higher orbit. When the atom loses energy, the electron jumps down to its original orbit. This energy is given off as radiation. | |
|
| Oh, so the behavior of a certain matter could be depicted by how many electrons were in the orbits? | |
