No, the Bohr model does not work for all elements. It accurately describes the electronic structure of hydrogen and other single-electron systems, but it fails to explain the behavior of multi-electron atoms. Instead, a more complex quantum mechanical description, such as the Schrödinger equation, is required to accurately describe the electronic structure of all elements.

What was the atomic model that resembled planets orbiting the sun?
The atomic model in which electrons orbit the nucleus the way that planets orbit the sun is called the Bohr atom. We now know that atoms are really not very much like that at all, and electrons do not orbit the nucleus, they form shells, rather than orbits.
How are the orbitals in the electron cloud model different from the electron paths illustrated in the Bohr model?
The Bohr model suggests that electrons orbit the nucleus in circles and that these circles are all in a single plane.The electron clouds are three-dimensional, not planar.Some of the electron clouds are spherical, some are of other shapes; they are of different shapes (not all circular).The positions of electrons are probabilistic rather than deterministic.
Which theory of the atom was disproved?
Ernest Rutherford did not disprove Bohr's model. Modern Scientists, such asSchrodingercreated theelectroncloud model because the location of an electron is unknown and only the probability of an electron being somewhere is known. Bohr's model stated that electrons move in orbits around the nucleus, but the electrons would run out of kinetic energy and would then collapse into the nucleus and then the Nuclear Fusion occurs.
Bohr model of mercury?
1. draw a circle and write in it 11 because that's its atomic number 2. because sodium is in the third period of the periodic table, draw 3 circles (shells) around the middle one 3. in the first shell draw two dots across representing electrons 4. next on the second shell draw 8 dots 5. on the third shell, draw 1 dot because the it is on group 1 of the periodic table If you follow this format, you can do any element! You need to know the group, period, atomic number to do this, though.
Why do you say that the bohr model is both true and false?
I would guess, it's because Bohr's layered model correctly explains connections between atoms (i.e. molecules) and radiation, but on the hand quantum mechanics say that electrons are exactly not kept nicely with orbits- they are all over the place.
Does the Bohr model work for every atom?
The Bohr model does not work at all for atoms having more than one electron because it does not account for interactions between the electrons.
What is a bohr?
a diagram of all the elements including , protons neutrons, atoms
How has bohr's model changed throughout the years?
It hasn't, at all.
Who is Bohr and what did he do do?
Bohr was a Danish scientist who is known for his creation of the Bohr model, a flat model showing all shells in an atom and many others.You should probably check out Wikipedia,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohrfor more information, for I am probably not the expert on the subject. :)
The bohr model of the atom was inadequated because?
it couldn't explain all the observed transitions
Why do some chemists preferred Lewis model of the atom to Bohr model?
scientists think the electron cloud theory is more acurate because the electrons are not like the solar system. they dont have a certain position(bohr theory0 but go around in all different dirrections forming a cloud.
What was neil bohr's belief?
Neil Bohr proposed 'Bohrs model' of an atom. In this he hypothesised that the larger nuclei were clustered in the center of an atom, with the electrons forming circular 'shells' around them. This was in contrast to the 'plumb pudding' model of an atom, whereby all the fundamental particles are randomly clustered about the space of the atom. Bohr's model was aided by the Rutherford experiment, which indicated that the highest concentration of particles existed in the center of the atomic space. Bohr's model is still taught at secondary school level, though newer models have been theorised and tested.

What is the difference between Bohr model and the electron cloud model?
Bohr's model depicts electrons in orbit around the nucleus. the electron cloud model shows orbitals within which an electron most likely is at any given time (the movement of electrons are random, and sometimes they get out of their orbital...i'm not making this up!). the electron cloud model is more accurate because electrons move closer and farther away from the nucleus, while the bohr model shows them at a given radius at all times.
