I would encourage you to explore further. Main Idea A visualization of the Bohr model and the hydrogen spectrum. looking for relationships in a meaningful way. Bohrs model of the hydrogen atom was the first to incorporate quantum theory, and the key idea of his model was that electrons occupy discrete orbitals. We can, however, say that the more electrons there are in an atom, the greater the variety of photon energies there will be so this may be a link worth exploringĪs I say, you are asking a great question. as it switches from one energy level to another, then it emits / absorbs photons. This is because the electron can exist in many energy levels. Hydrogen, for example, although the simplest atom, has a whole range of photon energies that it emits. The value of the energies of photons does depend on the available energy levels in the atom. Bohrs model suggests that the atomic spectra of atoms is produced by electrons gaining energy from some source, jumping up to a higher energy level, then immediately dropping back to a lower energy level and emitting the energy difference between the two energy levels. There is an intimate connection between the atomic structure of an atom and its spectral characteristics. Now, the energy of the photon emitted from any element does not depend on the number of electrons in the atom.

OK: I would say that the periodic table tells us about the number of protons in an element and, therefore the number of electrons too. Here is my answer, but I would encourage you to explore this and similar questions further.
