Consider two different hydrogen atoms.

Question:

Consider two different hydrogen atoms. The electron in each atom is in an excited state. Is it possible for the electrons to have different energies but the same orbital angular momentum according to the Bohr model?

Solution:

As the value of n in two different hydrogen atoms are different, their angular momentum will be different.

According to Bohr’s model, the angular momentum is given as

L = nh/2π
