The radius of electron's second stationary orbit in Bohr's atom is RR. The radius of 3rd{3}^{rd} orbit will be

Options

  1. AR3\dfrac{R}{3}
  2. B2.25R2 . 25R
  3. C3R3R
  4. D9R9R

Correct answer

B. 2.25R2 . 25R

Step-by-step solution

As we know, radius of hydrogen like atom r∝n2Zr ∝ \dfrac{{n}^{2}}{Z}.

Therefore,

r2r3=(n2n3)2\dfrac{{r}_{2}}{{r}_{3}} = {\left(\dfrac{{n}_{2}}{{n}_{3}}\right)}^{2}

⇒Rr3=(23)2⇒ \dfrac{R}{{r}_{3}} = {\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)}^{2}

⇒r3=94R⇒ {r}_{3} = \dfrac{9}{4}R

=2.25R= 2 . 25R
