Question

Does the Bohr's atomic theory explain the variation of intensity of different spectral line on the basis of frequency of photons emitted? Justify your answer.

Solution

One of the shortcomings of Bohr's Theory was that it could not explain the variation of intensity of the spectral lines of an element on the basis of frequency of photons emitted. 

The intensity can be explained only by quantum mechanics.
