QUESTION:

Problem 97P

Discuss the current view of the correctness of the following statements, (a) The electron in the hydrogen atom is in an orbit that never brings it closer than 100 pm to the nucleus, (b) Atomic absorption spectra result from transitions of electrons from lower to higher energy levels, (c) A many-electron atom behaves somewhat like a solar system that has a number of planets.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

The electron in the hydrogen atom is in an orbit that never brings it closer than 100 pm to the nucleus.

It is an incorrect statement. According to Heisenberg uncertainty principle, it is impossible to know the exact position and momentum of an electron with respect to the nucleus.
