Atoms And Nuclei Question 114

Question: Energy of an electron in an excited hydrogen atom is ? 3.4 eV. Its angular momentum will be: $ h=6.626\times {{10}^{-34}}J-s $ [UPSEAT 1999; Kerala PET 2002]

Options:

A) $ 1.11\times 10^{34}J\ \sec $

B) $ 1.51\times {{10}^{-31}}J\ \sec $

C) $ 2.11\times {{10}^{-34}}J\ \sec $

D) $ 3.72\times {{10}^{-34}}J\ \sec $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

The electron is in the second orbit (n=2) Hence $ L=\frac{nh}{2\pi }=\frac{2h}{2\pi }=\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}}{\pi } $ $ =2.11\times {{10}^{-34}}J\text{-}sec $
