An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya

The magnitude of the linear momentum of the electron is quantized.

The electron goes around the nucleus in circular orbits.

Quantization of energy is itself a postulate of the Bohr model.

The angular momentum of the electron can only be an integral multiple of $\frac{h}{2 π}$ .

Detailed Solution

Bohr's quantization condition of angular momentum states that angular momentum of the electron in stationary orbits is an integral multiple of $\frac{h}{2 π}$ .

i.e., $L = n \frac{h}{2 π}$ led to the quantization of energy.
