What happens inside the orbital when energy provided to electron is not sufficient for it to change orbitals? [closed]
While studying the chapter called Atomic Structure, we were introduced with Bohr's model of an Atom. Even though not all of his postulates were right, I believe some were. A doubt arose in the ...

What is the average distance between electron 'shells' in an atom? Or between the innermost shell and the nucleus? [closed]
Somehow, I've never come across any mention of the actual, physical distances between, say the 1s and 2s shells in an atom, whether large or small....
I know that p, d and f (and g?) shells are oddly ...

Why is it that protons and electrons undergo the same amount of deflection in an electric field if they have the same energy?
The question I have is with respect to this diagram. Which depicts a stream of protons and electrons entering a proton field with equal energy.
Why is it that in the case where the energy of protons ...

Finding excited stage of electron from its potential energy
The potential energy of an electron in the hydrogen atom is $\pu{-6.8 eV}.$ Indicate the excited stage in which electron is present.
Total energy would be equal to $\pu{-3.4 eV}.$
I used the formula
$...

Quantization and Bohr's model
According to quantization it's said that emitted or absorbed energy is quantized.
Then, when it's said in bohr's model an electron changes its orbit (Let's say it goes to a higher energy shell from $...
