The distribution of electrons into different orbits of an atom, as suggested by Bohr, follows a specific pattern. According to Bohr`s model, the first orbit, called the K-orbit, can hold a maximum of 2 electrons. The second orbit, called the L-orbit, can hold a maximum of 8 electrons. And the third orbit, called the M-orbit, can hold a maximum of 18 electrons.

Option 1 suggests that the K-orbit can hold 2 electrons, the L-orbit can hold 6 electrons, and the M-orbit can hold 18 electrons. This is not accurate because the L-orbit can hold a maximum of 8 electrons, not 6. Therefore, option 1 is incorrect.

Option 2 suggests that the K-orbit can hold 2 electrons, the L-orbit can hold 8 electrons, and the M-orbit can hold 32 electrons. This is incorrect because the K-orbit can only hold a maximum of 2 electrons, not 32. Therefore, option 2 is incorrect.

Option 3 suggests that the K-orbit can hold 2 electrons, the L-orbit can hold 8 electrons, and the M-orbit can hold 18 electrons. This
