Question

Select the correct statement that is proposed by Neils Bohr regarding the model of an atom.

• A. Electrons move to higher energy orbits by absorbing energy
• B. Electrons move to lower energy orbits by absorbing energy
• C. Electrons move to higher energy orbits by emitting energy
• D. Energy has no role in movement of electrons

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Electrons move to higher energy orbits by absorbing energy

Bohr's Model of the atom included the idea(s) that:

The electron can have only certain energies, including a lowest-level ground state, electrons emit energy as light when they move to the lower energy orbits and electrons absorb energy by moving to the higher energy orbits.
