The Bohr Theory of the Hydrogen Atom: Part II

This post will focus on some equation manipulation regarding how to derive the equations for the radius of the hydrogen atom and the velocity of an electron according to Bohr Theory. Also, we will examine the significance of these findings on the properties of the hydrogen atom. This will be done for the level of […]

Sometimes I skim, sometimes I read… I realize this post is incongruous with the rest of this blog, but I was rather excited about this derivation and I felt like sharing. Anyway, I am not an expert on […]
