Question:

Assertion (A) : If the total energy of the electron in a H-atom is negative, then it would be bound to the nucleus.

Reason (R) : Bohr model is valid for both one electron atom and multi-electron atom.

Options:

A and R are both true and R is the correct explanation of A

A and R are both true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

A is true but R is false

A is true but R is false

Correct Answer:

A is true but R is false

Explanation:

Electron is bound to nucleus by electrostatic force of attraction.

Total energy = K.E + P.E , Its negative means , its kinetic energy is not enough to break free form the orbit.

Bohr model is valid for one electron atom only.
