NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom is correct?
Electrons emit light only when they transition from a higher energy state to a lower energy state.
The frequency of light emitted by an electron is independent of its orbital radius.
Electrons can occupy any orbit around the nucleus without restrictions.
Absorption spectra show bright lines on a dark background when light passes through a gas.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the Bohr model, electrons emit light during transitions from higher to lower energy states, resulting in discrete spectral lines. This is consistent with the emission line spectra produced by such transitions.
