Q. STATEMENT - 1 : In the duration electron jumps from first excited state to ground state in a stationary isolated hydrogen atom, the angular momentum of the electron about the nucleus is conserved.

STATEMENT - 2 : As the electron jumps from first excited state to ground state, in a hydrogen atom, the electrostatic force on the electron is always directed towards the nucleus.
