which of the following postulates of the Bohr model led to the quantization of energy of the hydrogen atom ?

A

The electron goes around the nucleus in circular orbits.

B

The angular momentum of the electron can only be an integral multiple of `h//2pi`.

C

The magnitude of the linear momentum of the electron is quantized.

D

Quantization of energy is itself a postulate of the Bohr model.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

bohr's quantization condition of angular momentum i.e., `L=n(h)/(2pi)` led to the quantization of energy.
