Atomic Structure - Result Question 96

72.

(a) Calculate velocity of electron in first Bohr orbit of hydrogen atom (Given, $r=a _0$ ).

(b) Find de-Broglie wavelength of the electron in first Bohr orbit.

(c) Find the orbital angular momentum of $2 p$-orbital in terms of $h / 2 \pi$ units.

Solution:

  1. (a) $m v r=\dfrac{n h}{2 \pi}$

$\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{n h}{2 \pi m r}=\dfrac{6.625 \times 10^{-34}}{2 \times 3.14 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times 0.529 \times 10^{-10}} $

$=2.18 \times 10^{6} ms^{-1}$

(b) $\lambda=\dfrac{h}{m v}=\dfrac{6.625 \times 10^{-34}}{9.1 \times 10^{-31} \times 2.18 \times 10^{6}}=0.33 \times 10^{-9} m$

(c) Orbital angular momentum

$ (L)=\sqrt{l(l+1)} \dfrac{h}{2 \pi}=\sqrt{2}\left(\dfrac{h}{2 \pi}\right) $

$[\because$ For $p$-orbital, $l=1]$
