Rutherford's nuclear model of atom was rejected because it failed to explain
(i) the line spectra of atoms
(ii) the alpha particle scattering experimeny results
(iii) the stability of atom

A

`(i),(ii),(iii),(iv)`

B

`(ii),(iii)`

C

`(i),(iii)`

D

`(i),(ii)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

According to classical physical, the electron of Rurtherford's model will spiral into the nucleus (within `10^(8)-10^(-10)s)` giving out a continuous spectrum.
