Structure of Atom - Result Question 19

####19. The radius of hydrogen atom in the ground state is 0.53\AA. The radius of Li2+ ion (atomic number =3 ) in a similar state is

(a) 0.17\AA

(b) 0.265\AA

(c) 0.53\AA

(d) 1.06\AA

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (a) State of hydrogen atom (n)=1

(due to ground state)

Radius of hydrogen atom (r)=0.53\AA. Atomic number of Li(Z)=3.

Radius of Li2+ ion

=r×n2Z=0.53×(1)23=0.17\AA.
