Find the de-Broglie wavelength of an electron with kinetic energy of ( 120 eV ).
Options
- A( 95 pm )
- B( 102 ) pm
- C( 112 pm )
- D( 124 pm )
Correct answer
C. ( 112 pm )
Step-by-step solution
Given, kinetic energy of electron =120 eV de Broglie wavelength is related to V as = 1.227 ~nm V = 1.227 10⁻⁹ 120 = 1.227 10⁻⁹ 10.95 =0.112 10⁻⁹ Therefore, =112 10⁻¹² ~m =112 pm
