The energy required by electrons, present in the first Bohr orbit of hydrogen atom to be excited to second Bohr orbit is J mol-1. Given: RH = 2.18 10-11 ergs.

  1. 9.835 1012
  2. 1.635 10-11
  3. 1.635 10-18
  4. 9.835 105

Answer

(4) 9.835 105

Solution

En = - RHn2

E = RH ( 112 - 122 )

= 2.18 10-11 34

= 1.635 10-11 erg per atom

= 1.635 10-18 J per atom

For 1 mol of atoms:

E = 1.635 10-18 6.022 1023

9.8 105 J mol-1

The value is 9.835 105 J mol-1 (closest option).

Which of the following postulate of Bohr's model of hydrogen atom is not in agreement with quantum mechanical model of an atom?

  1. The electron in a H atom's stationary state moves in a circle around the nucleus.
  2. An atom can take only certain distinct energies E1, E2, E3, etc. These allowed states of constant energy are called the stationary states of atom.
  3. An atom in a stationary state does not emit electromagnetic radiation as long as it stays in the same state.
  4. When an electron makes a transition from a higher energy stationary state to a lower energy stationary state, then it emits a photon of light.
