Pick out of the correct statement about de Broglie concept

Options

A. It is applicable only for submicroscopic objects in the range of atoms, molecules and sub atomic particles
B. It can accurately be applied to motion of an electron around the nucleus
C. It is applicable only for microscopic particles
D. None of these

Answer

D

Explanation

De-Broglie concept is applicable for all objects moving in a force free environments but is significant only for submicroscopic particles and other such atomic particles. As an electron in an atom is subjected to attractive forces of the nucleus, de-Broglie concept can not be applied quantitatively in this case.
