For an electron moving in the n ^ th Bohr orbit the deBroglie wavelength of an electron is
Options
- An r
- Br n
- Cn r 2
- D2 r n
Correct answer
D. 2 r n
Step-by-step solution
From de Broglie's hypothesis, = h p _ n = h mv and from Bohr's atomic model, L = nh 2 Also, L = mvr _ n Due to quantization of angular momentum, we can write, aligned & nh 2 = mvr _ n & v = nh 2 mr aligned putting (ii) into (i), we get, = h m ( nh / 2 mr ) = 2 r n
