Bohr and The Hydrogen Atom

Bohr's Atomic Model PlayerPerhaps one of the most well-known physicists of the 20th century is Niels Bohr. Bohr, a Danish scientist, was the first to apply the quantum concept to the problems associated with atomic structure. At the time, the leading atomic models lacked the proper placement for electrons. Using the discovery of quantized energy, Bohr placed the electrons in energy levels.
