To find the change in the radius of the nth orbit when the mass of the electron is reduced to half of its original value, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between radius and mass From Bohr's model of the atom, the radius of the nth orbit (R_n) is given by the formula: \[ R_n = \frac{n^2 h^2}{4 \pi^2 k Z e^2 m} \] where: - \( n \) is the principal quantum number (orbit number), - \( h \) is Planck's constant, ...
