Speed of an electron in Bohr’s 7 ^ th orbit for Hydrogen atom...

Speed of an electron in Bohr’s 7th{7}^{th} orbit for Hydrogen atom is 3.6×106ms−13 . 6 \times {10}^{6}m{s}^{- 1}. The corresponding speed of the electron in 3rd{3}^{rd} orbit, in ms−1m{s}^{- 1} is :

Options

  1. A1.8×1061 . 8 \times {10}^{6}
  2. B7.5×1067 . 5 \times {10}^{6}
  3. C3.6×1063 . 6 \times {10}^{6}
  4. D8.4×1068 . 4 \times {10}^{6}

Correct answer

D. 8.4×1068 . 4 \times {10}^{6}

Step-by-step solution

For hydrogen like atom, the velocity of electron in nth{n}^{th} orbit is given by

v=z2e22ε0hnv = \dfrac{{z}^{2}{e}^{2}}{2{ε}_{0}hn}

∴v∝1n∴ v ∝ \dfrac{1}{n}

⇒v1v2=n2n1⇒ \dfrac{{v}_{1}}{{v}_{2}} = \dfrac{{n}_{2}}{{n}_{1}}

⇒3.6×106v2=37⇒ \dfrac{3 . 6 \times {10}^{6}}{{v}_{2}} = \dfrac{3}{7}

v2=8.4×106ms−1{v}_{2} = 8 . 4 \times {10}^{6}m{s}^{- 1}
