The de-Broglie wavelength ( λ _ B ) associated with the electron...
The de-Broglie wavelength associated with the electron orbiting in the second excited state of hydrogen atom is related to that in the ground state by:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
We know that wavelength is inversely proportional to momentum, let is de-Broglie Wavelength corresponds to momentum , similarly let is Wavelength at ground state corresponds to momentum,
, and velocity, , where is the atomic number, and is a number of orbits, here, (ground state), (second excited state). So,
