... 7.4 Quantum Mechanics Physicists were both mystified and intrigued by Bohr’s theory. They questioned why the energies of hydrogen electron are quantized, or, why is the electron in a Bohr atom restricted or orbiting the nucleus at certain fixed distance? For a decade there is no logical explanation ...
