Given below are two statements: Statement I : Rutherford's gold foil experiment cannot explain the line spectrum of hydrogen atom. Statement II : Bohr's model of hydrogen atom contradicts Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Option: 1 Statement I is false but statement II is true.
Option: 2 Statement I is true but statement II is false.
Option: 3 Both statement I and statement II are false.
Option: 4 Both statement I and statement II are true.
As we have learnt,
(I) Rutherfords's gold foil experiment cannot explain the line spectrum of Hydrogen.
(II) Bohr's model contradicts the Heisenberg's uncertainity principle as it predicts the radius as well as the speed of the electron simultaneously without any error.
Thus, both statements are true.
Hence, the correct answer is option (4)
