Einstein once said it was important to keep asking the questions we eventually teach children not to ask. Why is angular momentum quantized? You already know the answer. Electrons have wave-like properties, as de Broglie later proposed. They can exist only where they interfere constructively, and only certain orbits meet proper conditions, as we shall see in the next module.\r\n\r\nFollowing Bohr\u2019s initial work on the hydrogen atom, a decade was to pass before de Broglie proposed that matter has wave properties. The wave-like properties of matter were subsequently confirmed by observations of electron interference when scattered from crystals. Electrons can exist only in locations where they interfere constructively. How does this affect electrons in atomic orbits? When an electron is bound to an atom, its wavelength must fit into a small space, something like a standing wave on a string. (See Figure 1.) Allowed orbits are those orbits in which an electron constructively interferes with itself. Not all orbits produce constructive interference. Thus only certain orbits are allowed\u2014the orbits are quantized.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"701\"]<img class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2548\/2017\/10\/26202721\/Figure_31_06_00a.jpg\" alt=\"Figure a shows a string tied between two fixed supports.

(a) Waves on a string have a wavelength related to the length of the string, allowing them to interfere constructively. (b) If we imagine the string bent into a closed circle, we get a rough idea of how electrons in circular orbits can interfere constructively. (c) If the wavelength does not fit into the circumference, the electron interferes destructively; it cannot exist in such an orbit.[\/caption]\r\n\r\nFor a circular orbit, constructive interference occurs when the electron\u2019s wavelength fits neatly into the circumference, so that wave crests always align with crests and wave troughs align with troughs, as shown in Figure 1\u00a0(b). More precisely, when an integral multiple of the electron\u2019s wavelength equals the circumference of the orbit, constructive interference is obtained. In equation form, the <em>condition for constructive interference and an allowed electron orbit<\/em> is\u00a0<em>n\u03bb<\/em><sub><em>n<\/em><\/sub><em>\u00a0<\/em>= 2<em>\u03c0r<\/em><sub><em>n<\/em><\/sub>(<em>n\u00a0<\/em>= 1, 2, 3 ...),\u00a0where <em>\u03bb<\/em><sub><em>n<\/em><\/sub> is the electron\u2019s wavelength and <em>r<\/em><sub><em>n<\/em><\/sub> is the radius of that circular orbit.

Only those states where matter interferes constructively exist, or are \u201callowed.\u201d Since there is a lowest orbit where this is possible in an atom, the electron cannot spiral into the nucleus. It cannot exist closer to or inside the nucleus.

N equals one; l equals zero; m sub l equals zero. R sub one equals a sub B, most probable distance for an electron.\" width=\"300\" height=\"240\" \/> Figure 3. The ground state of a hydrogen atom has a probability cloud describing the position of its electron. The probability of finding the electron is proportional to the darkness of the cloud. The electron can be closer or farther than the Bohr radius, but it is very unlikely to be a great distance from the nucleus.[\/caption]\r\n\r\nBecause of the wave character of matter, the idea of well-defined orbits gives way to a model in which there is a cloud of probability, consistent with Heisenberg\u2019s uncertainty principle. Figure 3\u00a0shows how this applies to the ground state of hydrogen. If you try to follow the electron in some well-defined orbit using a probe that has a small enough wavelength to get some details, you will instead knock the electron out of its orbit. Each measurement of the electron\u2019s position will find it to be in a definite location somewhere near the nucleus. Repeated measurements reveal a cloud of probability like that in the figure, with each speck the location determined by a single measurement. There is not a well-defined, circular-orbit type of distribution. Nature again proves to be different on a small scale than on a macroscopic scale.\r\n\r\nThere are many examples in which the wave nature of matter causes quantization in bound systems such as the atom. Whenever a particle is confined or bound to a small space, its allowed wavelengths are those which fit into that space. For example, the particle in a box model describes a particle free to move in a small space surrounded by impenetrable barriers. This is true in blackbody radiators (atoms and molecules) as well as in atomic and molecular spectra. Various atoms and molecules will have different sets of electron orbits, depending on the size and complexity of the system. When a system is large, such as a grain of sand, the tiny particle waves in it can fit in so many ways that it becomes impossible to see that the allowed states are discrete. Thus the correspondence principle is satisfied. As systems become large, they gradually look less grainy, and quantization becomes less evident. Unbound systems (small or not), such as an electron freed from an atom, do not have quantized energies, since their wavelengths are not constrained to fit in a certain volume.\r\n<div class=\"textbox\">\r\n<h2>PhET Explorations: Quantum Wave Interference<\/h2>\r\nWhen do photons, electrons, and atoms behave like particles and when do they behave like waves?
