Choose the correct statement regarding Bohr’s theory
Choose the correct statement regarding Bohr’s theory Correct Answer All are correct.
CONCEPT:
Bohr’s Model: Niels Bohr by making 4 postulates solved the puzzle of hydrogen spectra.
- The electrons revolve around the nucleus in certain circular stable orbits without emitting electromagnetic radiations.
- The radius around the orbit has some special values of the radius. In these stationary orbits, they do not radiate energy as expected from Maxwell’s laws.
- The energy of each stationary orbits are fixed, electrons can jump from a higher orbit to a lower orbit by emitting a photon of radiation. Where Higher energy orbit – Lower energy orbit = (h c)/λ
- The electron can also jump from lower to higher energy by absorbing energy.
- In stationary orbits, the angular momentum L of an electron always remains constant which is an integral multiple of (h/2π).
Angular momentum (L) = m v r = n × (h/2π)
Angular momentum in 1st orbit = h/2π
Angular momentum in 3rd orbit = 3h/2π
EXPLANATION:
Important Points
Limitations of Bohr’s Model:
- It could not work for atoms and ions having more than one electron not even for Helium.
