| Description: | This applet is designed to represent Bohr's Model of an atom. It simulates Bohr's experiment of shining various light frequencies at the hydrogen atom. The simulations shows what happens when it is light is shined at it. Either the electrons in the atom become excited or they don't. This demonstration of quantum mechanics shows that atoms can only absorb light of specific frequencies, and that intensity or the time that light sits on an atom does not matter. Light of only specific wavelenths and frequencies can excite an atom and that atoms reside in only specific energy levels. |
