Drawbacks of Rutherford and Bohr Atomic Models

It accurately describes the line spectrum of atoms.

It can't explain the stability of the atom. (correct)

It involves the concept of orbiting electrons.

It predicts the velocity of light in the atom.

The electron's velocity decreases.

The electron escapes the atom.

The electron's velocity remains fixed. (correct)

The electron collapses into the nucleus.

It predicts the stability of atoms.

It doesn't account for continuous energy levels.

It lacks an explanation for line spectra. (correct)

It involves stable orbits for electrons.
