2. The hydrogen atom has quantized energy levels.

Explanation:

The Bohr model of the atom states that the structure of the atom is quantized, that is, that electrons can only orbit the nucleus in specific orbits with a fixed radius. Therefore, the electron cannot be in energy levels that do not correspond to these quantized levels.
