The magnetic moment of electron due to orbital motion is proportional to
(n= principle quantum numbers)

A

`1/n^(2)`

B

`1/n`

C

`n^2`

D

n

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Magnetic moment `(M_(0))=(e)/(2m_(0))xx L_(0)`
`therefore L_(0) alpha n`.
`therefore M_(0) alpha n`.
