### Step-by-Step Solution **(1) Angular Momentum of an Electron:** According to Bohr's third postulate, the angular momentum (L) of an electron in a stable orbit around the nucleus is quantized and is given by the formula: \[ L = mvr = n \frac{h}{2\pi} \] where: - \( m \) is the mass of the electron, - \( v \) is the velocity of the electron, ...
