Question
Physics Question on Bohr's model of hydrogen atom
The Bohr model of atoms
A
Uses Einstein's photo electric equation
B
Predicts continuous emission spectra for atoms
C
Predicts the same emission spectra for all types of atoms
D
Assumes that the angular momentum of electrons is quantized
Answer
Assumes that the angular momentum of electrons is quantized
Explanation
Solution
The Bohr model of an atom postulates that electrons can only occupy specific orbits where their angular momentum is quantized as integral multiples of resulting in energy levels with discrete values. This model is applicable to hydrogen and similar atoms, helping to elucidate their line emission spectra.
