Question
Consider two different hydrogen atoms. The electron in each atom is in an excited state. Is it possible for the electrons to have different energies but the same orbital angular momentum according to the Bohr model?
✓
Answer
As per Bohr model, $\text{En}=-\Big(\frac{13.6}{\text{n}^2}\Big)$. Now electrons have different energies it means they have different values of n. So, their angular momentum $\Big(\text{mvr}=\frac{\text{nh}}{2\pi}\Big)$ will be different.
