Question

In the Bohr model of the atom, the electrons are considered to be particles moving in specific and discrete orbits.

a. True
b. False

Answer 1

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Bohr proposed an atomic model in which;

• the electrons found in an atom can only occupy orbits for which the angular momentum is quantized, which results in discrete values of energy level.

• the electrons in such stationary state or ground state emits no light, but

• if an electron jumps to a lower state, it emits a photon whose energy equals the difference in energy between the two states.
