NEET 2019 Physics Bohr's Model MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
The total energy of an electron in an atom in an orbit i.4 eV. Its kinetic and potential energies are, respectively
A
3.4 eV, -6.8 eV
B
3.4 eV, -3.4 eV
C
-3.4 eV, -3.4 eV
D
-3.4 eV, -6.8 eV
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In an atom, the total energy E = KE + PE. For an electron, KE = -PE/2. Given E = -3.4 eV, KE = 3.4 eV and PE = -6.8 eV.
