The energy of an electron in excited hydrogen atom is -3.4 eV. Then according to Bohr's theory, the angular momentum of the electron in Js is [Kerala PET 2002]

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

En=-13.6n2eV; (given En=-3.4 eV)-3.4=-13.6n2; n=2

Therefore, angular momentum of electron in 2nd orbit is required which is given by 

Ln=mvrn=nh2π; n=2L2=2×6.6×10-342×3.14=2.11×10-34 Js

When hydrogen atom is in its first excited level, its radius is [1997]

Explanation

The radius of nth Bohr's orbit of hydrogen and hydrogen like atom

rn=εon2h2πme2Z rn=n2a0Z or rn α n2Z

For ground state, n = 1

Atomic number, Z = 1

For first excited state, n = 2 

 r2r1=212=4or r2=4r1

Therefore, radius of first excited state is 4 times than that of ground state radius in H-atom.

The ionisation potential of helium atom is 24.6 volt, the energy required to ionise it will be

Explanation

Energy, W = qV, ionisation energy in eV = Ionisation Potential in Volt

24.6 eV energy is required to ionise helium atom.

Ratio of the wavelength of first line of Lyman series and first line of Balmer series is [EAMCET (Engg. 1995; MP PMT 1997; UPSEAT 2004; KCET 2006; NEET 2013]

Explanation

1λ=R1n12-1n22

For first line of Lyman series n1= 1 and n2= 3

For first line of Balmer series n1= 2 and  n2= 3

So, λLymanλBalmer=527

The ionization energy of 10 times ionized sodium atom is:

Explanation

EionNa=Z2(Eion)H=112×13.6 eV

The ionisation energy of hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV, the ionisation energy of helium atom would be [1988]

Explanation

Ionisation energy is defined as the energy required to knock an electron completely out of an isolated gaseous atom. When electron is raised to the orbit n = , it will be completely out of the atom. Ionisation energy of helium,

E=2π2mZ2k2e4h2112-1=2π2m(2)2k2e4h2112-1Ionisation energy for hydrogen atom=13.6 eV=2π2mk2e2h2×4×112-124×13.6=54.4 eV

The photon radiated from hydrogen corresponding to the line of Lyman series is absorbed by a hydrogen-like atom X in the excited state.   As a result the hydrogen-like atom X makes a transition to nth orbit. Then:

Explanation

Energy of nth state in hydrogen is same as energy of 3nth state in Li++.

 31 transition in H would give same energy as the 

×31×3 transition in Li++

If an electron in an hydrogen atom jumps from an orbit ni=3 to an orbit with level nf=2, the frequency of the emitted radiation is

Explanation

1λ=R1ni2-1nf2C=νλ; 1λ=νCνC=R1ni2-1nf2ν=CR122-132=536CR

The energy of a hydrogen atom in its ground state is -13.6 eV. The energy of the level corresponding to the quantum number n = 5 is

Explanation

En=-13.6n2eV=13.652eV=-0.54 eV

The wave number of a photon in Brackett series of hydrogen atom is 9400R. The electron has transited from the orbit havit quantum number [Odisha JEE 2012]

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

For Brackett series, v¯=R142-1n29400R=R116-1n2 or 9400=116-1n21n2=116-9400=16400n2=40016 or n=204=5
