The approximate value of principal quantum number for a circular orbit of hydrogen atom of radius 530 ~nm is
Options
- A26
- B100
- C200
- D21
Correct answer
B. 100
Step-by-step solution
Radius of electron of hydrogen in n^ th orbit, aligned & r_n=n^2 0.53 Å & 530 ~nm =n^2 0.053 Å & 530 10⁻⁹ ~m =n^2 0.53 10⁻¹⁰ ~m & n^2= 5300 0.53 & n^2=10^4 & n=100 & aligned
