QJEEM22Ph92ce: JEE Main 2022 Physics - Class 12 JEEM22Ph92ce Solution: Given below are two statements : Statement I : In hydrogen…

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : In hydrogen atom, the frequency of radiation emitted when an electron jumps from lower energy orbit (E1) to higher energy orbit (E2), is given as hf = E1 −- E2

Statement II : The jumping of electron from higher energy orbit (E2) to lower energy orbit (E1) is associated with frequency of radiation given as f = (E2 −- E1)/h

This condition is Bohr's frequency condition.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
  • B Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
  • C Statement I is correct but Statement II is false.
  • D Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is true.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Radiation is not emitted but absorbed when an electron jumps from low energy to high energy.

Also, E2 −- E1 is the energy of photon

⇒\Rightarrow E2 −- E1 = hf

⇒f=E2−E1h\Rightarrow f = {{{E_2} - {E_1}} \over h}
