Answer:

The radii of second, third and fourth orbits in term of first orbit is:

r_2=4\times r_1

r_3=9\times r_1

r_4=16\times r_1

Explanation:

Formula used for the radius of the n^{th} orbit will be,

r_n=\frac{n^2\times 52.9}{Z}   (in pm)

where,

r_n = radius of n^{th} orbit

n = number of orbit

Z = atomic number

Radius of first orbit, n=1

r_1=\frac{1^2\times 52.9}{1}=52.9 pm ..(1)

Radius of second orbit, n=2

r_2=\frac{2^2\times 52.9}{1}

r_2=4\times r_1 (from(1))

Radius of third orbit, n=3

r_3=\frac{3^2\times 52.9}{1}

r_3=9\times r_1 (from(1))

Radius of forth orbit, n=4

r_4=\frac{4^2\times 52.9}{1}

r_4=16\times r_1 (from(1))
