The correct Answer is:
To determine the validity of the given statements, we need to analyze each statement step by step. ### Solution Steps: 1. **Understanding Statement 1**: - The statement claims that the angular momentum of d-orbitals is given by the formula \(\sqrt{6} \frac{h}{2\pi}\). - The angular momentum \(L\) of an electron in an orbital can be calculated using the formula: \[ L = \sqrt{l(l + 1)} \frac{h}{2\pi} \] - Here, \(l\) is the azimuthal quantum number, which is 2 for d-orbitals. 2. **Calculating Angular Momentum for d-orbitals**: - Substituting \(l = 2\) into the formula: \[ L = \sqrt{2(2 + 1)} \frac{h}{2\pi} = \sqrt{2 \cdot 3} \frac{h}{2\pi} = \sqrt{6} \frac{h}{2\pi} \] - Thus, Statement 1 is correct. 3. **Understanding Statement 2**: - The second statement claims that the angular momentum of an electron in an orbit is given by \(mvr = \frac{nh}{2\pi}\). - This is a statement derived from Bohr's model of the atom, which quantizes the angular momentum of electrons in orbits. 4. **Verifying Statement 2**: - According to Bohr's theory, the angular momentum \(L\) of an electron in a circular orbit is quantized and given by: \[ L = mvr = \frac{nh}{2\pi} \] - This means that for any electron in a defined orbit, this relationship holds true, confirming that Statement 2 is also correct. 5. **Determining the Relationship Between the Statements**: - While both statements are true, Statement 2 does not explain Statement 1. Statement 1 pertains specifically to the angular momentum of d-orbitals, while Statement 2 is a general statement about the angular momentum of electrons in any orbit. ### Conclusion: - Both statements are true, but Statement 2 is not the correct explanation for Statement 1. ### Final Answer: - Both statements are true, but Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.
