Physics-Bohr Model

NEET Physics Bohr Model Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 12

Assertion (A): Bohr's model is unable to explain the relative intensities of frequencies emitted by hydrogenic atoms. | Reason (R): Bohr's model can only be applied to hydrogenic (single electron) atoms and not to multi-electron atoms.

A

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false but R is true.

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

A is true because Bohr's model does not account for the relative intensities of spectral lines. R is true as Bohr's model is applicable only to single-electron systems, but it does not explain A.
