Itis remove an orbital electron from an atom, The reason is the binding energy of

§ MeV). This aneans that the removal of an orbital electron requires few electron volt energy
while the removal ofa nucleon from a nucleus requires nearly 8 MeV energy.
Write shortcomings of Rutherford atomic model. Explain how these were overcome by the
postulates of Bohr’s atomic model. [CBSE 2020 (55/5/1))
‘two important limitations of Rutherford model are:

energy due to the acceleration; hence the atom will not remain stable.
{i Aselectron spirals inwards; its angular velocity and frequency change continuous!
it should emit a continuous spectrum.
But an atom like hydrogen always emits a discrete line spectrum.
Hohr’s postulates overcome these limitations by:
{i) Bohr stated that negatively charged electrons revolve around positively charged nucleus
in certain orbits called stationary orbits. The electrons does not radiate energy when in
stationary orbits.
(i) The quantum of energy is released or a
orbit to another.

Observations and Conclusions
( Most of a-particles pass through
the gold foil undeflected. ‘This
implies that “most part of the atom
is hollow.”
(ii) a-particles are scattered through
all angles, Some a-particles (nearly
1 in 2000), suffer scattering
through angles more than 90°,
while a still smaller number (nearly
1 in 8000) retrace their path. This
implies that when fast-moving
positively charged a-particles come
near gold-atom, then a few of them
experience such a strong repulsive
force that they turn back. On this basis Rutherford concluded
that whole of positive charge of atom is concentrated in a
small central core, called the nucleus.
The distance of closest approach of a-particle gives the
estimate of nuclear size. If Ze is charge of nucleus, E,-kinetic
