Bohr's radius of 2 nd orbit of Be ³⁺ is equal to that of
Options
- A4th orbit of hydrogen
- B2nd orbit of He ⁺
- C3 rd obit of Li ²⁺
- D1st orbit of hydrogen
Correct answer
D. 1st orbit of hydrogen
Step-by-step solution
Bohr radius for n th orbit =0.53 Å n^2 Z where, Z= atomic number Bohr radius of 2 nd orbit of Be ³⁺= 0.53 (2)^3 4 =0.53 Å For option (d) Bohr radius of 1st orbit of H = 0.53 (1)^3 1 =0.53 Å Hence, Bohr's radius of 2 nd orbit of Be ³⁺ is equal to that of first orbit of hydrogen.
