The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom and the properties of the electron in the nth permissible orbit, we will analyze each property step by step. ### Step 1: Linear Momentum The linear momentum \( p \) of the electron can be expressed as: \[ p = mv \] where \( m \) is the mass of the electron and \( v \) is its velocity. According to Bohr's theory, the angular momentum \( L \) of the electron in the nth orbit is quantized and given by: \[ L = mvr = n\frac{h}{2\pi} \] From the above equation, we can express the velocity \( v \) as: \[ v = \frac{nh}{2\pi mr} \] Substituting this back into the expression for linear momentum: \[ p = mv = m\left(\frac{nh}{2\pi mr}\right) = \frac{nh}{2\pi r} \] Since the radius \( r \) of the orbit is proportional to \( n^2 \) (i.e., \( r \propto n^2 \)), we can express \( p \) as: \[ p \propto \frac{n}{n^2} = \frac{1}{n} \] Thus, the linear momentum is inversely proportional to \( n \). ### Step 2: Radius of Orbit The radius of the nth orbit is given by: \[ r \propto n^2 \] This means that the radius increases with the square of the principal quantum number \( n \). ### Step 3: Kinetic Energy The kinetic energy \( K \) of the electron in the nth orbit can be derived from the total energy, which is given by: \[ E = -\frac{Z^2 e^4 m}{2\hbar^2 n^2} \] For hydrogen, \( Z = 1 \), thus: \[ E \propto -\frac{1}{n^2} \] This indicates that the kinetic energy is inversely proportional to \( n^2 \). ### Step 4: Angular Momentum The angular momentum \( L \) of the electron is given by: \[ L = mvr = n\frac{h}{2\pi} \] From this, we can see that angular momentum is directly proportional to \( n \): \[ L \propto n \] ### Summary of Results 1. **Linear Momentum**: \( p \propto \frac{1}{n} \) (Correct) 2. **Radius of Orbit**: \( r \propto n^2 \) (Incorrect) 3. **Kinetic Energy**: \( K \propto \frac{1}{n^2} \) (Correct) 4. **Angular Momentum**: \( L \propto n \) (Correct) ### Final Conclusion Thus, the correct options according to Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom are: - Linear momentum is inversely proportional to \( n \) (Correct). - Radius of orbit is proportional to \( n^2 \) (Incorrect). - Kinetic energy is inversely proportional to \( n^2 \) (Correct). - Angular momentum is directly proportional to \( n \) (Correct).

To solve the question regarding Bohr's theory of the hydrogen atom and the properties of the electron in the nth permissible orbit, we will analyze each property step by step. ### Step 1: Linear Momentum The linear momentum \( p \) of the electron can be expressed as: \[ p = mv \] where \( m \) is the mass of the electron and \( v \) is its velocity.
