The radius of a hydrogen atom is `5.32 xx10^(-11)` m and the radius of a proton at the centre is `1.5 xx 10^(-5)` m. The ratio of the radius of the atom to the radius of proton is :

A

`3.5 xx 10^(-6)`

B

`3.54 xx 10^(-6)`

C

`3.55 xx 10^(-6)`

D

`4 xx 10^(-6)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`("Radius of atom")/(Radius of proton") = (5.32 xx 10^(-11))/(1.5 xx 10^(-5) )`
` = 3.5 xx 10^(-6) `
answer is reported upto 2 significant figures as in 1.5

The gravitational attraction between electron and proton in a hydrogen atom is weaker than the coulomb attraction by a factor of about 10^(-40) . An alternative way of looking at this fact is to estimate the radius of the first Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom if the electron and proton were bound by gravitational attraction.
