Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 9. (c)
Solution:
- (c) According to Bohr’s model of H-atom, the relation between kinetic energy, potential energy and total energy
K.E. $=|TE|=\frac{|P . E .|}{2}$
so, K.E. $=-$ (T.E.)
$\therefore \quad$ K.E. $=3.4 eV$
and P.E. $=2$ (T.E)
$\Rightarrow$ P.E. $=-6.8 eV$
