Solution

According to Bohr's atomic model:
1. Only certain special orbits known as discrete orbits of electrons are allowed inside the atom.
2. While revolving in discrete orbits the electrons do not radiate energy.

Hence, statements II and III are true.

According to bohr's model of an atom, electron revolves around the nucleus in the fixed orbits called stationary states or energy shells. Electron does not emit nor absorb energy when it revolves. WHY IS IT SO?

Bohr argued that Rutherford's model would be highly unstable because according to him (bohr) if an electron revolves continously it would be subjected to accelaration. Thus, electron will continously emit radiation and fall in the nucleus. But when electron revolves around the nucleus in Bohr's model it also changes its energy shells, then why the bohr's model is not unstable?
