Best Answer

the waves produced by an electron confined in its orbit about the nucleus sets up a "standing wave",( a specific number of "bounces" each second), of specific wavelength, energy and frequency (i.e., Bohr's energy levels) like a rubber band when stretched and released.

The wave mechanical model is used to predict the behavior of every electron within an atom. The predictions that are obtained when using the wave mechanical model ensure that the findings are as accurate as possible.
