MCQ
Which of the following statement does not form part of Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom
  • A
    Energy of the electrons in the orbit is quantized
  • B
    The electron in the orbit nearest to the nucleus has the lowest energy
  • C
    Electrons revolve in different orbits around the nucleus
  • The position and velocity of the electrons in the orbit cannot be determined simultaneously

Answer

Correct option: D.
The position and velocity of the electrons in the orbit cannot be determined simultaneously
d
The statement $(D)$ does not form a part of Bohr's model of hydrogen atom.

Bohr assumed that an electron in an atom is located at a definite distance from the nucleus and is revolving with a definite velocity around it. This is against Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, according to which the position and velocity of the electrons in the orbit cannot be determined simultaneously.
