NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Calculate the wavelength of the electron in the third orbit of the hydrogen atom using Bohr's quantization condition and de Broglie's hypothesis.
2 nm
0.66 nm
0.33 nm
0.2 nm
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Using de Broglie's hypothesis, λ = h/mv. For the third orbit, the quantization condition gives mv = nh/2πr. Thus, λ = 2πr/n = 0.33 nm for n=3.
