Question
Which atomic model introduced the concept of 'stationary orbits' where electrons do not absorb or emit energy while revolving?
Correct Answer
Option D is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Bohr's Atomic Model, proposed after Rutherford's, introduced the idea of 'stationary orbits' where electrons could revolve without radiating energy, thus solving the stability problem of Rutherford's model. The text states: 'If an electron stays in its own stationary orbit, there will be no absorption or emission of energy.'
Hint
This concept addressed a major issue with the previous planetary model.
