Correct answer: 658
- Energy of electron in Bohr's first orbit
For hydrogen atom, the total energy in the first Bohr orbit is
The kinetic energy of the electron in Bohr orbit is
- Relate de-Broglie wave frequency to electron kinetic energy
For the matter wave associated with the electron, Here the relevant energy of the moving electron is its kinetic energy in the orbit.
So,
- Calculate
- Express in the required form
We need
Thus,
Nearest integer .
- Comparison with stored answer
My derived answer is 330, but the stored correct answer is 658.
A value near would come from using which is not the standard way to assign de-Broglie matter-wave frequency when using the given Bohr orbit kinetic energy. Using the provided data and the usual relation for the electron's kinetic energy in the orbit gives 330.
