Brainliest please :)

Answer 2

The Neil Bohr’s complementarity principle can be best summarized in the co-existence of the wave theory and particle theory of light.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The duality among wave and particle exists in quantum mechanics that all particle or quantum is described in terms of not only particles but also waves.  

The complementarity principle as the name suggests is the complimentary property of light which is found to co-exist in nature. That is why the co-existence of light in form of wave and particle has been theoretically proven.
