Which one of the following statements about the Bohr model is incorrect?Orbits may have only specific energy values in an atom.The number of electrons in the innermost orbit of an atom in the ground state is always the same as the the period number for that atom.The third orbit from the nucleus can hold a maximum of eighteen electrons.Electrons can move between orbits by absorbing or emitting electromagnetic radiation.Electrons may orbit the nucleus only a specific distances.

The incorrect option woud be B, since the period number of an atom means the number of shells present around the nucleus of this element, and not the number of electrons in the innermost orbit
