The magnitude of the spin angular momentum corresponding to an electron in Balmer transition inside a hydrogen atom cam be:

Options

A. `S=sqrt(s(s+1))(h)/(2pi)`
B. `S=s(h)/(2pi)`
C. `S=sqrt((3)/(2))xx(h)/(2pi)`
D. `S=+-(1)/(2)xx(h)/(2pi)`

Answer

A, C

Explanation

Spin angular momentum`=sqrt(s(s+1))(h)/(2pi)`
`S=sqrt((1)/(2)((1)/(2)+1))(h)/(2pi)=(sqrt(3))/(2)xx(h)/(2pi)`
