If the de Broglie wavelength of the electron in nth Bohr orbit in a hydrogenic atom is equal to 1.5 a0 (a0 is Bohr radius), then the value of n/z is -
- A0.75
- B0.40
- C1.50
- D1.0
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
- Use the de Broglie condition for Bohr orbit
For an electron in the Bohr orbit,
So,
- Radius of the orbit in a hydrogenic atom
For a hydrogenic species,
Substitute into the wavelength expression:
- Given wavelength
It is given that
Therefore,
Cancel from both sides:
- Match with the options
So the correct option is A.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: A
This matches our derived answer.
