NEET Chemistry Bohr's Model Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The angular momentum of the electron in a hydrogen atom is quantized.
Reason (R): Electrons can only occupy orbits where their angular momentum is an integral multiple of h/2π.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Bohr's model states that an electron can only move in orbits for which its angular momentum is an integral multiple of h/2π, thus quantizing it. This is directly mentioned in the NCERT context.
