NEET Physics Hydrogen Atom Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The angular momentum of an electron in a hydrogen atom is quantised. | Reason (R): The electron in a hydrogen atom can only occupy orbits for which the angular momentum 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
Both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion as per Bohr's second postulate regarding stable orbits.
