STANDARD Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 11
The radius of nᵗʰ orbit rₙ in terms of Bohr radius (a₀) for a hydrogen atom is given by the relation
A
na₀
B
√na₀
C
n²a₀
D
n³a₀
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
The radius of the nᵗʰ orbit in a hydrogen atom is given by rₙ = n²a₀, where a₀ is the Bohr radius. This shows that the radius is proportional to the square of the principal quantum number n.
