A muon behaves like an electron except that it has 207 times the mass of the electron. If a muon were bound to a proton, how would the energy levels in the Bohr model compare to those for a bound electron?
a. They would be 207 times as much as those for the electron.
b. They would be (207)2 times as much as those for the electron.
c. They would be the same.
d. They would be (1/207) times as much as those for the electron.

Question 2

When an electron moves from the n = 1 to the n = 3 orbit:
a. the radius doubles and the angular momentum increases by a factor of 9.
b. the radius increases by a factor of 9, and the angular momentum triples.
c. both the radius and the angular momentum increase by a factor of 9.
d. both the radius and the angular momentum triple.
