1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:02,335 - [Voiceover] If you didn't watch the last video 2 00:00:02,335 --> 00:00:03,722 because there was too much physics, 3 00:00:03,722 --> 00:00:06,049 I'll just quickly summarize what we talked about. 4 00:00:06,049 --> 00:00:08,755 We went over the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, 5 00:00:08,755 --> 00:00:10,571 which has one proton in its nucleus, 6 00:00:10,571 --> 00:00:12,719 so here's the positive charge in the nucleus, 7 00:00:12,719 --> 00:00:16,356 and a negatively charged electron orbiting the nucleus. 8 00:00:16,356 --> 00:00:17,945 And even though this is not reality, 9 00:00:17,945 --> 00:00:20,719 the Bohr model is not exactly what's happening, 10 00:00:20,719 --> 00:00:23,335 it is a useful model to think about. 11 00:00:23,335 --> 00:00:25,251 And so we just assumed the electron 12 00:00:25,251 --> 00:00:26,296 was going in this direction 13 00:00:26,296 --> 00:00:29,636 So counter-clockwise around which gives our electron 14 00:00:29,636 --> 00:00:31,738 a velocity tangent to our circle, 15 00:00:31,738 --> 00:00:34,202 which we said was v in the last video. 16 00:00:34,202 --> 00:00:37,455 And in the last video, we calculated this radius. 17 00:00:37,455 --> 00:00:40,338 So we calculated the radius of this circle, 18 00:00:40,338 --> 00:00:43,160 and we said this was equal to r one. 19 00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:45,760 So r one turned out to be five point three times 10 to the 20 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,815 negative eleventh meters, which is an important number. 21 00:00:49,815 --> 00:00:52,289 And we also derived this equation, right. 22 00:00:52,289 --> 00:00:57,033 So r for any integer n is equal to n squared times r one, 23 00:00:57,033 --> 00:00:59,363 for example, if you wanted to calculate r one again. 24 00:00:59,363 --> 00:01:02,985 So the first allowed radius using the Bohr model 25 00:01:02,985 --> 00:01:06,492 is equal to one squared times r one. 26 00:01:06,492 --> 00:01:09,938 And so obviously one squared is one so r one is equal to 27 00:01:09,938 --> 00:01:14,640 five point three times 10 to the negative eleven meters. 28 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,637 And so when n is equal to one, 29 00:01:16,637 --> 00:01:19,445 we said this was an electron in the ground state, 30 00:01:19,445 --> 00:01:21,825 in the lowest energy state for hydrogen. 31 00:01:21,825 --> 00:01:24,570 We'll talk about energy states in the next two videos. 32 00:01:24,570 --> 00:01:28,493 So this is a very important number here. 33 00:01:28,493 --> 00:01:30,374 So this is, this number right here, 34 00:01:30,374 --> 00:01:34,500 is the radius of the smallest orbit in the Bohr model. 35 00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:37,262 In the previous video, we also calculated the velocity 36 00:01:37,262 --> 00:01:39,198 or we came up with an equation that you could use 37 00:01:39,198 --> 00:01:42,194 to calculate the velocity of that electron. 38 00:01:43,547 --> 00:01:44,775 If you go back to the previous video, 39 00:01:44,775 --> 00:01:47,390 you'll see the equation that we derived was the velocity is 40 00:01:47,390 --> 00:01:51,814 equal to the integer n times Planck's constant 41 00:01:51,814 --> 00:01:56,508 divided by two pi m times r, 42 00:01:56,533 --> 00:02:00,407 and we figured this out using Bohr's assumption 43 00:02:00,432 --> 00:02:02,929 for quantised angular momentum 44 00:02:02,953 --> 00:02:06,785 and the classical idea of angular momentum. 45 00:02:06,785 --> 00:02:08,368 So if we plug in some numbers here, 46 00:02:08,368 --> 00:02:11,869 we can actually solve for the velocity of this electron 47 00:02:11,869 --> 00:02:15,283 cause we're gonna take this radius and we're gonna 48 00:02:15,283 --> 00:02:18,026 plug it in down here and then we know what 49 00:02:18,026 --> 00:02:19,365 these other numbers are. 50 00:02:19,365 --> 00:02:23,239 So we said n was equal to one, so we're talking about 51 00:02:23,264 --> 00:02:26,362 n is equal to one so we're going to plug a one to here. 52 00:02:26,362 --> 00:02:27,298 So this will be a one. 53 00:02:27,323 --> 00:02:30,052 The velocity is equal to one times Planck's constant, 54 00:02:30,077 --> 00:02:35,077 six point six two six times 10 to the negative 34 55 00:02:35,684 --> 00:02:40,684 divided by two pi times m. 56 00:02:40,909 --> 00:02:43,615 And we're talking about the electron so m was the 57 00:02:43,615 --> 00:02:47,948 mass of our electron, which is nine point one one times 58 00:02:47,948 --> 00:02:50,564 10 to the negative 31st kilograms. 59 00:02:50,564 --> 00:02:54,602 And finally, for n is equal to one, this was our 60 00:02:54,602 --> 00:02:58,118 allowed radius so we can plug this in for our radius, 61 00:02:58,118 --> 00:03:02,013 five point three times 10 to the negative 11. 62 00:03:02,764 --> 00:03:07,030 So if you do all that math, I won't take the time 63 00:03:07,030 --> 00:03:09,826 to do it here, but you'll get a velocity 64 00:03:09,851 --> 00:03:14,851 approximately equal to, approximate sign, two point two 65 00:03:14,972 --> 00:03:19,375 times 10 to the sixth and your units should work out 66 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,902 to meters per second so that's the velocity. 67 00:03:22,902 --> 00:03:26,362 So going by the Bohr model, you can calculate 68 00:03:26,362 --> 00:03:30,020 the radius of this circle here so you can calculate 69 00:03:30,020 --> 00:03:33,104 this radius, and you can also calculate the velocity. 70 00:03:33,104 --> 00:03:35,965 And,again, this isn't reality but we'll use these 71 00:03:35,965 --> 00:03:39,401 numbers in later videos so it's important to figure out 72 00:03:39,401 --> 00:03:40,987 where they came from. 73 00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:44,914 So this is the radius of the smallest orbit allowed 74 00:03:44,914 --> 00:03:48,235 using the Bohr model but you can have other radii, 75 00:03:48,260 --> 00:03:50,394 and we can calculate the radii of larger orbits 76 00:03:50,394 --> 00:03:52,108 using this equation. 77 00:03:52,108 --> 00:03:54,698 So we're just gonna use different values for n. 78 00:03:54,723 --> 00:03:56,969 So we started off with n is equal to one. 79 00:03:56,969 --> 00:03:59,035 Let's use the same equation and let's do 80 00:03:59,035 --> 00:04:00,801 n is equal to two. 81 00:04:00,801 --> 00:04:02,762 So let me go ahead and rewrite that equation down here. 82 00:04:02,762 --> 00:04:04,284 Let's get some room. 83 00:04:04,553 --> 00:04:09,553 So r for any integer n is equal to n squared times r one. 84 00:04:10,148 --> 00:04:14,158 Let's do n is equal to two here. 85 00:04:14,183 --> 00:04:18,065 So n is equal to two so let's go ahead and plug in two. 86 00:04:18,065 --> 00:04:21,403 So we'd have two squared times r one. 87 00:04:21,428 --> 00:04:25,619 So r two, the second allowed radii or the second 88 00:04:25,619 --> 00:04:29,907 allowed radius I should say, is equal to four times r one. 89 00:04:29,932 --> 00:04:31,475 So if we're thinking about a picture, 90 00:04:31,475 --> 00:04:33,403 let's say this is the nucleus here 91 00:04:33,403 --> 00:04:37,424 and then this tiny, little radius here is r one. 92 00:04:37,449 --> 00:04:39,877 If we wanted to sketch in the second allowed one, 93 00:04:39,877 --> 00:04:43,020 it would be four times that so I'm just going 94 00:04:43,020 --> 00:04:44,054 to approximate. 95 00:04:44,054 --> 00:04:47,879 Let's say that radius is four times that so this is r two, 96 00:04:47,879 --> 00:04:50,659 which is equal to four times r one. 97 00:04:50,684 --> 00:04:55,358 And so we sketch in the radius of this next radius here, 98 00:04:55,358 --> 00:04:58,343 this next allowed radius, using the Bohr model. 99 00:04:58,368 --> 00:05:00,730 We could figure out mathematically what that's equal to 100 00:05:00,730 --> 00:05:03,837 because we know r one is equal to five point three 101 00:05:03,837 --> 00:05:07,089 times 10 to the negative 11 meters. 102 00:05:07,089 --> 00:05:09,689 And so if you do that calculation, four times that number 103 00:05:09,689 --> 00:05:12,695 gives you approximately two point one two times 104 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,265 10 to the negative 10th meters. 105 00:05:16,265 --> 00:05:21,265 So this is our second radius when n is equal to two. 106 00:05:21,857 --> 00:05:25,078 Let's do one more when n is equal to three 107 00:05:25,078 --> 00:05:27,434 so let's get a little bit more room here. 108 00:05:27,434 --> 00:05:31,375 So when n is equal to three, 109 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,337 this radius will be equal to three squared times r one. 110 00:05:36,694 --> 00:05:38,861 So once again, we're just taking three 111 00:05:38,861 --> 00:05:41,169 and plugging it into here 112 00:05:41,169 --> 00:05:43,279 and so three squared is, of course, nine. 113 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,040 So this would be equal to nine times r one 114 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,705 so our next allowed radius will be nine times r one. 115 00:05:50,705 --> 00:05:52,482 And I'm sure I won't get this accurate, 116 00:05:52,482 --> 00:05:54,672 but it's a lot bigger. 117 00:05:54,672 --> 00:05:57,888 So this will be r three is equal to nine times r one. 118 00:05:57,888 --> 00:06:00,466 So I won't even attempt to draw in that circle, 119 00:06:00,466 --> 00:06:02,551 but you get the idea. 120 00:06:02,576 --> 00:06:05,807 And we could do that math as well, so nine times 121 00:06:05,832 --> 00:06:10,480 five point three times 10 to the negative 11 meters 122 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,262 would give you approximately four point seven seven 123 00:06:14,262 --> 00:06:17,409 times 10 to the negative 10th meters. 124 00:06:17,409 --> 00:06:20,303 And so these are the different allowed radii 125 00:06:20,303 --> 00:06:23,334 using the Bohr model so you can say that the orbit radii 126 00:06:23,334 --> 00:06:26,353 are quantised, only certain radii are allowed 127 00:06:26,353 --> 00:06:29,754 so you couldn't get something in between. 128 00:06:29,754 --> 00:06:32,574 You couldn't have something in between in here 129 00:06:32,574 --> 00:06:35,581 according to the Bohr model so this is not possible. 130 00:06:35,581 --> 00:06:39,343 And these radii are associated with different energies 131 00:06:39,343 --> 00:06:41,267 and that's gonna be really important 132 00:06:41,267 --> 00:06:44,169 and that's really why we're doing these calculations. 133 00:06:44,169 --> 00:06:46,131 So we're getting these different radii here 134 00:06:46,131 --> 00:06:48,964 and each one of these radii is associated 135 00:06:48,964 --> 00:06:50,199 with a different energy. 136 00:06:50,199 --> 00:06:52,444 So, again, more to come in the next few videos 137 00:06:52,444 --> 00:00:00,000 about energy, which is probably more important.
