Question

In which of the following Bohr’s stationary state, the electron will be at maximum distance from the nucleus ?

Answer 1

Answer:

i am not understanding the question

Answer 2

The electron will be at maximum distance from the nucleus and  maximum energy value of zero at n=∞

Bohr used energy levels in order to discuss orbits with certain energies.

Explanation:

• Bohr has proposed the energy states and has told that electrons do not radiate energy as they orbit around the nucleus.

• In the state of constant energy, it is called stationary states

• Electrons move in an orbit at fixed distances from the nucleus.

• Bohr has worked on the emission spectra of hydrogen.
• Energy for the hydrogen atom is given by the formula En=E₁÷n²
• Electron is under attraction towards nucleus hence energy shows a negative sign here.
• Energy increases as n increases.
• The electron has a maximum energy value of zero at n=∞
