NEET Chemistry (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 11

According to the de Broglie equation, what is the wavelength of an electron with a kinetic energy of 2.0 × 10^−25 J and mass 9.1 × 10^−31 kg?

A

6.63 × 10^−10 m

B

9.87 × 10^−10 m

C

4.87 × 10^−10 m

D

8.97 × 10^−10 m

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

Using the de Broglie equation, λ = h / mv, where h is Planck's constant and mv is momentum. Solving for λ with given K.E. and mass, we find the wavelength is 8.97 × 10^−10 m.
