What are the characteristic differences between Rutherford's atomic theory and Bohr's theory.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Rutherford's atomic Model vs Bohr's Model
(i) Rutherford's atomic theory could not explain the nuclear stability of an atom. Bohr's theory could explain the stability of an atom.
(ii) Rutherford's atomic model is failed to explain to explain the line spectra. Bohr's theory successfully explained the formation of line spectra of H atom.
