Solution:

(A) True, atom of each element emits characteristic spectrum.
(B) True, according to Bohr's postulates and hence electron resides into orbits of specific radius called stationary orbits.
(C) False, density of nucleus is constant
(D) False, free neutron is unstable decays into proton and electron and antineutrino.
(E) True unstable nucleus show radioactivity.
