The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom, we will analyze each statement provided in the options and determine their correctness based on the principles of Bohr's theory. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Radius of nth Orbit:** - According to Bohr's model, the radius of the nth orbit (Rn) for a hydrogen atom (Z = 1) is given by: \[ R_n = \frac{R_0 n^2}{Z} \] where \( R_0 \) is the ground state radius (approximately 0.529 Å). - For hydrogen (Z = 1), this simplifies to: \[ R_n = R_0 n^2 \] - Therefore, the radius of the nth orbit is indeed proportional to \( n^2 \). - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 2. **Total Energy of Electron in nth Orbit:** - The total energy (E) of an electron in the nth orbit is given by: \[ E_n = -\frac{13.6 \, \text{eV} \cdot Z^2}{n^2} \] - For hydrogen (Z = 1), this becomes: \[ E_n = -\frac{13.6 \, \text{eV}}{n^2} \] - This indicates that the total energy is inversely proportional to \( n^2 \), not \( n \). - **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Angular Momentum of the Electron:** - Bohr's model states that the angular momentum (L) of an electron in an orbit is quantized and given by: \[ L = n \frac{h}{2\pi} \] - Here, \( n \) is the principal quantum number, and \( h \) is Planck's constant. - This means that the angular momentum is indeed an integral multiple of \( \frac{h}{2\pi} \). - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 4. **Potential Energy vs. Kinetic Energy:** - In Bohr's model, the relationship between kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) is given by: \[ KE = -\frac{1}{2} E \] and \[ PE = 2 \cdot KE \] - Therefore, the magnitude of potential energy is greater than that of kinetic energy, as: \[ |PE| = 2 |KE| \] - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. ### Final Answer: - The correct options are: - A: Correct (Radius of nth orbit is proportional to \( n^2 \)) - B: Incorrect (Total energy is inversely proportional to \( n^2 \)) - C: Correct (Angular momentum is an integral multiple of \( \frac{h}{2\pi} \)) - D: Correct (Magnitude of potential energy is greater than kinetic energy)
