Correct answer: D. Statement I is incorrect but statement II is true.

Given below are two statements Statement I: In hydrogen atom, the frequency of radiation emitted when an electron jumps

According to Bohr's model, when electron makes the transition from lower orbit to higher orbit, its energy can be given as

$∆ E = {E}_{final} - {E}_{initial} = hf$ , here, $h$ is Planck's constant.

Then, $f = \dfrac{{E}_{2} - {E}_{1}}{h}$ .

Bohr's frequency condition is the law that state that the frequency of the radiation emitted or absorbed during the transition of an atomic system between two stationary states equals the difference in the energies of the states divided by Planck's constant.

Hence, Statement I is incorrect but statement II is true.
