The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Bohr's model can explain," we need to analyze the options provided and determine what aspects of atomic structure and spectra Bohr's model is capable of explaining. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Bohr's Model**: - Bohr's model was proposed to explain the behavior of electrons in atoms. It specifically describes how electrons orbit the nucleus in defined paths or "shells." 2. **Limitations of Bohr's Model**: - One of the key limitations of Bohr's model is that it primarily applies to hydrogen-like atoms (atoms with only one electron). It cannot accurately explain the spectra of multi-electron atoms or ions. 3. **Identifying the Correct Application**: - Bohr's model can effectively explain the spectral lines of hydrogen and hydrogen-like ions (such as He⁺, Li²⁺, etc.), which have only one electron. 4. **Evaluating the Options**: - If the options include statements about the spectra of hydrogen or hydrogen-like ions, those would be correct. However, if any option suggests that Bohr's model can explain multi-electron atoms or complex spectra, that would be incorrect. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question "Bohr's model can explain" is that it can explain the spectral lines of hydrogen and hydrogen-like ions, but not those of multi-electron atoms. ### Final Answer: Bohr's model can explain the spectral lines of hydrogen and hydrogen-like ions (single-electron species).
