Question

During Muliken's oil drop experiment,out of the following, which is not a possible charge on oil droplet
A)1.6×10^-19C
B)2.4×10^-19C
C)3.2×10^-19C
D)4.8×10^-19C​

Answer 1

Answer:

option b is the correct answer

Explanation:

according to millikan drop experiment the charge on an object can be an integral multiple of 1.6× 10^-19C

but when we divide 2.4 ×10^-19/1.6×10^-19

we get 3/2 or 1.5

which is a fractional value and not an integer value therefore it shows that. 2.4× 10^-19 is not an integral multiple of 1.6× 10^-19.
