Question 534: Atoms & Nuclei

Question

An electron in hydrogen atom makes a transition n
1
$$ 	o $$ n
2
where n
1
and n
2
are principal quantum numbers of the two states . Assuming Bohr's model to be valid, the time period of the electron in the initial state is eight times that in the final state. The possible values of n
1
and n
2
are

Accepted Answer

As T $$ \propto $$ n
3
$$ 	herefore $$ $${{{T_1}} \over {{T_2}}} = {{8{T_2}} \over {{T_2}}}$$ = $${\left( {{{{n_1}} \over {{n_2}}}} ight)^3}$$
Hence, n
1
= 2n
2

Answer

n
1
= 6 and n
2
= 2

Answer

n
1
= 8 and n
2
= 1

Answer

n
1
= 8 and n
2
= 2

Answer

n
1
= 4 and n
2
= 2
