To find the ratio of the radii of orbits corresponding to the first excited state and the ground state in a hydrogen atom, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Understand the formula for the radius of orbits in a hydrogen atom.
The radius of the nth orbit in a hydrogen atom is given by the formula:
\[ R_n = n^2 \cdot R_1 \]
where \( R_1 \) is the radius of the ground state (n=1) orbit.
### Step 2: Identify the values of n for the ground state and the first excited state.

Assertion: In the duration electron jumps from fist excited state to ground state in a stationary isolated hydrogen atom, angular momentum of the electron about the nucleus is conserved. Reason: As the electron jumps from first excited state to ground state, in a hydrogen atom, the electrostatic force on electron is always directed twoards the nucleus.
