Manipal MET2010ChemistryStructure of Atom
The radius of the first Bohr orbit of hydrogen atom is 0.529 Å . The radius of the third orbit of H ⁺ will be
Options
- A8.46 Å
- B0.705 Å
- C1.59 Å
- D4.79 Å
Correct answer
D. 4.79 Å
Step-by-step solution
According to Bohr model, radius of hydrogen atom (r_n )= 0.529 n^2 Z Å (where, n= number of orbit, Z= atomic number) r₃= 0.529 (3)^2 1 =4.761 Å
