QNEET-2013-Ph-1615: NEET 2013 Physics - Class 12 NEET-2013-Ph-1615 Solution: An electron in hydrogen atom makes a transition \(n_1 n_2\)…
An electron in hydrogen atom makes a transition where and are principal quantum numbers of the two states. Assuming Bohr's model to be valid the time period of the electron in the initial state is eight times that in the final state. The possible values of and are and and and and
Multiple Choice Options
- A n 1 = 6 and n 2 = 2
- B n 1 = 8 and n 2 = 1
- C n 1 = 8 and n 2 = 2
- D n 1 = 4 and n 2 = 2
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
As T _ n 3
_ T 1 T 2 = 8 T 2 T 2 = ( n 1 n 2 ) 3
Hence, n 1 = 2n 2
