In hydrogen and hydrogen-like atom , the ratio of `E_(4 n) - E_(2 n) and E_(2 n) - E_(n)` varies with atomic nimber `z` and principal quantum number`n` as

A

`z^(2)//n^(2)`

B

`z^(4)//n^(4)`

C

`z//n`

D

`(n^(2)//z^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`E_(n)= -13.6/n^(2) (Z^(2))`
`E_(2n)= -13.6/((2n)^(2)) Z^(2)=13.6/4 (Z^(2)/n^(2))`
`E_(2n)-E_(n)=[(-13.6/4)Z^(2)/n^(2)]-[-3.6 (Z^(2)/n^(2))]`
`E_(2n)-E_(n)= -(13.6 )/(4) Z^(2)/n^(2)+13.6 Z^(2)/n^(2)`
`E_(2n)-E_(n)=Z^(2)/n^(2) (13.6-13.6/4)=(10.2) (Z^(2)/n^(2))`
`(E_(2n))(E_(n))=((13.6)^(2))/(4) (Z^(4)/n^(4))`
`((E_(2n)-E_(n)))/((E_(2n))(E_(n)))=((10.2)(Z^(2)/n^(2)))/(((13.6)^(2))/4 (Z^(4)/n^(4))) implies ((E_(2n)-E_(n)))/((E_(2n))(E_(n))) prop (n^(2)/Z^(2))`

    Hydrogen atom: The electronic ground state of hydrogen atom contains one electron in the first orbit. If sufficient energy is provided, this electron can be promoted to higher energy levels. The electronic energy of a hydrogen-like species (any atom//ions with nuclear charge Z and one electron) can be given as E_(n)=-(R_(H)Z^(2))/(n^(2)) where R_(H)= "Rydberg constant," n= "principal quantum number" What is the principal quantum number, n' of the orbit of Be^(3) that has the same Bohr radius as that of ground state hydrogen atom ?

    The ratio of (E_2 - E_1) "to" (E_4 - E_3) for the hydrogen atom is approximately equal to.

    According to Bohr's theory, the time averaged magnetic field at the centre (i.e. nucleus) of a hydrogen atom due to the motion of electrons in the n^(th) orbit is proportional to : (n = principal quantum number)

    According to Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom , the speed v_(n) of the electron in a stationary orbit is related to the principal quantum number n as (C is a constant):
