In hydrogen and hydrogen like atoms the ratio of difference of energy `E_(4n)-E_(2n)` and `E_(2n)-E_(n)` varies with atomic number Z and principal quantum number n as

A

`z^(2)//n^(2)`

B

`z^(4)//n^(4)`

C

`z//n`

D

`(n^(2)//z^(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`E_(n)= -13.6/n^(2) (Z^(2))`
`E_(2n)= -13.6/((2n)^(2)) Z^(2)=13.6/4 (Z^(2)/n^(2))`
`E_(2n)-E_(n)=[(-13.6/4)Z^(2)/n^(2)]-[-3.6 (Z^(2)/n^(2))]`
`E_(2n)-E_(n)= -(13.6 )/(4) Z^(2)/n^(2)+13.6 Z^(2)/n^(2)`
`E_(2n)-E_(n)=Z^(2)/n^(2) (13.6-13.6/4)=(10.2) (Z^(2)/n^(2))`
`(E_(2n))(E_(n))=((13.6)^(2))/(4) (Z^(4)/n^(4))`
`((E_(2n)-E_(n)))/((E_(2n))(E_(n)))=((10.2)(Z^(2)/n^(2)))/(((13.6)^(2))/4 (Z^(4)/n^(4))) implies ((E_(2n)-E_(n)))/((E_(2n))(E_(n))) prop (n^(2)/Z^(2))`

In hydrogen and hydrogen-like atom , the ratio of E_(4 n) - E_(2 n) and E_(2 n) - E_(n) varies with atomic nimber z and principal quantum number n as

Statement-1 : The excitation energy of He^(+) in its first excited state is 4 times the excitation energy of H in its first excited state. Statement-2 : The whose energies are defined by the expansion E= -(E_(0)Z^(2))/(n^(2)) are stable, where Z and n are atomic number of the atom and principal quantum number of the orbit, respectively.

Knowledge Check

  • Assertion : In hydrogen and hydrogen like species, orbital energy depends only on the quantum number n whereas in multi-electron atoms it depends on quantum numbers n and l. Reason : The principle quantum number determines the size and the energy of the orbital.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
    C
    If assertion is true but reason is false.
    D
    If both assertion and reason are false.
