D) electron energies are quantized
E) both A and C

Question

The Bohr model of the atom states that electron energies are quantized, meaning that they can only occupy certain energy levels or shells. Electrons travel in circular orbits around the nucleus, but these orbits are not called orbitals. The probability of an electron's location is described by the quantum mechanical model of the atom, not the Bohr model. Therefore, options A, B, and E are incorrect. Option C is not entirely accurate either, as the energy levels available to electrons in the Bohr model are discrete and specific.
