NEET Physics Bohr Model Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Bohr’s model of the atom is applicable only to hydrogenic atoms. | Reason (R): Bohr’s model explains the relative intensities of the frequencies emitted by multi-electron atoms.
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 but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Bohr's model is applicable only to hydrogenic atoms as it cannot explain the complexities of multi-electron atoms. The reason given is incorrect as Bohr's model does not account for the relative intensities of frequencies emitted by such atoms.
