Rydenberg constant and Rydenberg frequency for hydrogen?

Hey people, So my question concerns the Rydenberg constant and the Rydenberg frequency. What's the difference between the two, and why does the Rydenberg frequency only exist for hydrogen? If you want to determine it for other substances, what else do you have to do? (I don't want to know exactly how the calculation works,…

Are there infinite bowls?

So, you can send an electron to a higher shell by adding energy. Now my question is whether you can send the electron to the nth shell, or whether some physical law contradicts this. And that's not a theoretical question, but a practical one. Theoretically, you can calculate the energies Ekin and Epot for electrons…

Bohr atom model: electrons in the outer shells?

Can the electrons from the outer shells release energy on their own in order to jump to the next lower shell that is more stable or energetically more favorable? Excited electrons also fall back to their previous energy state or shell because the outer shells are more unstable (energetically less favorable) and emit electromagnetic radiation….
