Chemistry-Bohr's Model

NEET Chemistry Bohr's Model MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11

Consider a diagram representing Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom where an electron is shown moving in a circular orbit around the nucleus. Which statement correctly describes the electron's angular momentum in this model?

Question diagram
A

It is quantized and proportional to n, the principal quantum number.

B

It continuously varies as the electron moves in its orbit.

C

It is zero because electrons are stationary in their orbits.

D

It is quantized and can have any integer multiple of h.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In Bohr's model, the angular momentum of an electron is quantized and is an integral multiple of h/2π, directly related to the principal quantum number n.
