NEET Chemistry Bohr's Model Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): In Bohr's model, electrons can only occupy certain fixed orbits around the nucleus.
Reason (R): The angular momentum of an electron in these orbits is quantized and 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
According to Bohr's model, electrons can only occupy fixed orbits because their angular momentum is quantized as an integral multiple of h/2π.
