Below, sketch your idea of what the spectrum will look like for Dalton’s model. Move the slider all the way over to reset the Spectrometer, and let the Slow…Fast Fast, simulation run for 1 minutes. on the Spectrometer camera to take a snapshot of the Billiard Ball. Compare it to the Slide these snapshots off to the right for later comparisons. Experiment. Does the spectrum for the model match that of the experimental Billiard Ball (real) hydrogen spectrum? Switch to Thomson’s Plum Pudding model, close Show Spectrometer, and move the slider all the way over to (your snapshot will disappear as well. Don’t Slow…Fast Slow. worry, it will come back when you open Show Spectrometer again). Describe what is happening within the atom below. Move the slider all the way over to reset the Spectrometer, and let the Slow…Fast Fast, simulation run for 1 minutes. Click on the Spectrometer camera to take a snapshot of the Plum Pudding model. Compare it to the Experiment. Slide the snapshot off to the right for later comparisons. Does the spectrum for the Plum Pudding model match that of the real hydrogen spectrum? Just for fun, switch to the model. This was Rutherford’s model Classical System that assumes the atom is like our solar system. Describe what happens below. Switch to the Bohr model, click on Show electron energy level in the upper right hand corner, and set the speed to Slow. NOTE: These three next steps are critical to you understanding the Bohr atom model Describe what you see in the atom diagram.
