If an orbital electron of the hydrogen atom jumps from the groud state to a higher energy state, its orbital value. If the radius of the electron orbit in the ground state is `r`, then the radius of the new orbit would be:

A

`2r`

B

`4r`

C

`8r`

D

`16r`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Since speed reduce to half, `KE` reduced to
` 1/4thRightarrow n=2mvr=(nh)/(2pi)`
` mv_(0)r=1. h/(2pi)……..I`
` m(V_(0))/2r'=2.h/(2pi).....II`
