Consider an electron in the nth orbit of a hydrogen atom in the Bohr model. The circumference of the orbit can be expressed in terms of the de-Broglie wavelength `lambda` of that electron as

A

`(0.259)n lambda`

B

`sqrt(n) lambda`

C

`(13.6) lambda`

D

`n lambda`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

According to Bohr's theory `mvr = n(h)/(2pi)`
`rArr` Circumference `2 pir = n ((h)/(mv)) = n lambda`
