Based on equation E=-2.178 10⁻¹⁸ ~J ( Z^2 n^2 ) certain conclusions are written. Which of them is not correct?
Options
- AThe negative sign in equation simply means that the energy of electron bound to the nucleus is lower than it w
- BLarger the value of n , the larger is the orbit radius
- CEquation can be used to calculate the change in energy when the electron changes orbit
- DFor n=1 the electron has a more negative energy than it does for n=6 which means that the electron is more loo
Correct answer
D. For n=1 the electron has a more negative energy than it does for n=6 which means that the electron is more loo
Step-by-step solution
If n=1 , E₁=-2.178 10⁻¹⁸ Z^2 ~J If n=6 aligned E₆ & = -2.178 10⁻¹⁸ Z^2 36 ~J & =6.05 10⁻²⁰ Z^2 ~J aligned From the above calculation, it is abvious that electron has a more negative energy than it does for n=6 . It means that electron is more strongly bound in the smallest allowed orbit.
