In a hydrogen atom the electron revolves around the proton in an orbit of `0.53Å`. The potential produced by the electron on the nuleus is

A

`6.8 V`

B

`13.6 V`

C

`54.4 V`

D

`27.2V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`V=((1)/(4 pi epsi_(0)))(q)/(r)`
`=(9xx10^(9))xx(1.6xx10^(-19))/(0.53xx10^(-10))=27.2V`
