On the basis of Bohr's model, the radius of the 3 rd orbit is
Options
- AEqual to the radius of 1 st  orbit
- B3 times the radius of 1 st  orbit
- C5 times the radius of 1 st  orbit
- D9 times the radius of 1 st  orbit
Correct answer
D. 9 times the radius of 1 st  orbit
Step-by-step solution
So we know the concept of bohr's orbital theory the radius of n th orbit is r   =   0 . 53   n 2 z Where we know that n = Number of orbit z   = atomic number So for 3 rd orbit the radius is r   =   0 . 53 × 9 z So from above we know that 3 rd orbit radius is 9 times the radius of 1 st orbit
