Question

How is Bohr's atomic model different from Rutherford’s model?

Electrons in Bohr's model are placed in orbits of different energy levels.
Bohr's model has a heavy, dense nucleus.
Bohr's model has electrons.
Electrons in Bohr's model are placed in the nucleus.

Answer 1

Option A, Electrons in Bohr's model are placed in orbits of different energy levels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bohr’s atomic model gave the concept of discrete energy levels with in an atom while no such concept was outlined by Rutherford. Thus, option A is correct.

While other options are incorrect because of following reasons –

Option B- Both Bohr and Rutherford model proposed existence of dense core of atom which majorly constitutes the mass of atom.

Option C - Both Bohr and Rutherford model proposed existence of electron which revolve around the central mass of atom

Option D – This concept was proposed neither in Bohr nor in Rutherford atomic model

Answer 2

Option A, Electrons in Bohr's model are placed in orbits of different energy levels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bohr’s atomic model gave the concept of discrete energy levels with in an atom while no such concept was outlined by Rutherford. Thus, option A is correct.
