Why Bohr orbit are also know as energy levels ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The orbits of an atom actually represent the energy levels of the electrons in it. The energy value of these energy level increases as the shell number increases. These energy levels are also known as stationary orbits. The orbits are named according to the energy levels of electrons in it. Hence orbits are also called energy levels.
