Statement I is correct. According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom, the angular momentum of an electron in a given stationary state is quantized. The angular momentum of an electron in the nth orbit is given by:

L=nh=nh2π

where n is an integer (quantum number), and h is the Planck's constant.

Statement II is also correct. Bohr's model does not consider the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which states that it is impossible to know the exact position and momentum of an electron simultaneously. In Bohr's model, electrons are assumed to move in well-defined orbits with quantized angular momentum, which implies knowledge of both position and momentum, thus violating the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
