Options
- A2 . 3 × 10 6 ms - 1
- B1 . 3 × 10 6 ms - 1
- C2 . 3 × 10 5 ms - 1
- D1 . 3 × 10 3 ms - 1
Correct answer
A. 2 . 3 × 10 6 ms - 1
Step-by-step solution
Step I : Determine binding energy of electron : As we know E = - 1 3 . 6 Z 2 n 2 = - 1 3 . 6 2 2 1 2 For ground state = – 54.4 eV ∴ The binding energy of electron is E b = – E = 54.4 eV Step II : Determine kinetic energy of electron. ∴ T e = h c λ - E b = 1 2 4 2 n meV 1 8 n m - 5 4 . 4 eV = (69 – 54.4) eV = 14.6 eV = 23.36 × 10 –19 joule ∴ T e = 1 2 mv 2 v = 2 T e m = 2 × 2 3 . 3 6 × 1 0 - 1 9 9 . 1 × 1 0 - 3 1 m/s = 2 . 3 × 1 0 6 m/s
