Solution

The correct option is D All the above.
In 1913, Niels Bohr proposed a model for the hydrogen atom . The Bohr model was based on the following assumptions.
The electron in a hydrogen atom travels around the nucleus in a circular orbit.
The nucleus is of infinite mass and is rest.
Electrons in a quantized orbit will not radiate energy.
Mass of electron remains constant.

Q. Assertion: According to Bohr, angular momentum of an electron in an orbit is quantized.
Reason: Bohr's model of an atom could not explain Stark effect.

The Bohr atom, in structure, is not very different from the Rutherford atom - you have an electron going around the nucleus in a circular orbit. So even in the Bohr model, the electron must experience some centripetal acceleration. Why is there no radiation in that case, like in the Rutherford's model?

A particle of charge equal to that of an electron, -e and mass 208 times of the mass of the electron (called a mu-meson) moves in a circular orbit around a nucleus of charge +3e. (Take the mass of the nucleus to be infinite). Assume that the Bohr model of the atom is applicable to this system. If the value of n for which the radius of the orbit is approximately the same as that of the first Bohr orbit for the hydrogen atom, then the value of $\frac{n}{4}$ rounded off to nearest integer is

The energy required to transfer an electron from second Bohr orbit to third Bohr orbit in a hydrogen like atom with nuclear charge

Z_{e}

The wavelength of radiation required to shift the electron from first orbit to infinite orbit will be :

Q. Statement I: The angular momentum of an electron in the third orbit of singly ionized helium atom is same as in the third orbit of hydrogen atom or third orbit of doubly ionized Lithium atom.

Statement II: The angular momentum of an electron in Bohr's atomic model is independent of the no of protons in the nucleus and is quantized.
