Question

1. choose all that apply. which three postulates are of the bohr model of the atom? electrons can travel in any path at any distance from the nucleus. electrons can only gain or lose energy by jumping to a higher or lower orbit. electrons in each orbit contain a specific amount of energy. electrons can only travel in discrete orbits at specific distances from the nucleus. electrons can only lose energy by jumping to a higher or lower orbit. 4) choose the best answer. which statement is true? electrons can reside anywhere in an atom. the ground state is the orbital farthest from the nucleus. electrons like to be in the ground state and can get there by releasing energy. valence electrons are closest to the nucleus.

Explanation:

For question 3, the Bohr model postulates that electrons can only travel in discrete orbits at specific distances from the nucleus, electrons in each orbit contain a specific amount of energy, and electrons can only gain or lose energy by jumping to a higher or lower orbit. For question 4, electrons prefer the ground - state (lowest energy state) and can reach it by releasing energy. The ground - state is the orbital closest to the nucleus, not the farthest, and valence electrons are the farthest from the nucleus, not the closest. Also, electrons do not reside anywhere in an atom but in specific orbitals.

Answer:

1. Electrons can only gain or lose energy by jumping to a higher or lower orbit., Electrons in each orbit contain a specific amount of energy., Electrons can only travel in discrete orbits at specific distances from the nucleus.
2. Electrons like to be in the ground state and can get there by releasing energy.
