Question

Which of the following is not a feature of the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom?

The electron can have any numerical value of energy

When an electron jumps from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, the energy difference is carried away by radiation (a photon)

The electron can orbit the proton only at certain radii

The electron moves in circular orbits around the proton

The electron can have any numerical value of energy

When an electron jumps from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, the energy difference is carried away by radiation (a photon)

The electron can orbit the proton only at certain radii

The electron moves in circular orbits around the proton

Explanation / Answer

The electron can have any numerical value of energy - this is not the feature of bohr model

revolving electron can have definite energy.

When an electron jumps from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, the energy difference is carried away by radiation (a photon)

energy is in the form of photons

The electron can orbit the proton only at certain radii

The electron moves in circular orbits around the proton

generally, electron revolves around the nucleus in stationary orbits
