Given below are two statements.
Statement I: According to Bohr's model of an atom, qualitatively the magnitude of velocity of electron increases with decrease in positive charges on the nucleus as there is no strong hold on the electron by the nucleus.
Statement II: According to Bohr's model of an atom, qualitatively the magnitude of velocity of electron increases with decrease in principal quantum number.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Correct Option: , 3
Velocity of electron in Bohr's atom is given by
$\mathrm{V} \propto \frac{\mathrm{Z}}{\mathrm{n}}$
$Z=$ atomic number of atom, corresponds to $+$ ve charge so as $Z$ increase velocity increases so statement-I is wrong.
and as ' $n$ ' decreases velocity increases so statement-II is correct.
