NEETChemistryStructure of Atom
Why was a change in the Bohr Model of atom required? Due to which important development(s), concept of movement of an electron in an orbit was replaced by, the concept of probability of finding electron in an orbital? What is the name given to the changed model of atom?
Options
- AThe Bohr Model failed to explain the spectrum of multi-electron atoms, leading to the development of Quantum M
- BThe Bohr Model failed to explain the dual nature of electrons. The concept of electron cloud replaced the conc
- CThe Bohr Model was unable to predict the behavior of atoms in strong magnetic fields. The concept of electron
- DThe Bohr Model couldn't explain the formation of ions in chemical reactions. The concept of electron cloud rep
Correct answer
A. The Bohr Model failed to explain the spectrum of multi-electron atoms, leading to the development of Quantum M
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (A) The Bohr Model failed to explain the spectrum of multi-electron atoms, leading to the development of Quantum Mechanics. The concept of electron cloud replaced the concept of definite orbits, and the model is known as Quantum Mechanical Model.
