Question:
The electron in a given Bohr orbit has a total energy of . Calculate its (i) Kinetic energy.
(ii) potential energy.
(iii) Wavelength of radiation emitted, when this electron makes a transition to the ground state. [Given : Energy in the ground state and Rydberg's constant ]
Answer:
(i) Kinetic energy of the electron = 1.5 ev.
(ii) The potential energy of the electron = -3.0 eV.
(iii) Wavelength of гadiation .
Explanation:
Given:
E = 1.5 ev
(i) Kinetic energy of the electron
Kinetic energy = -E
Kinetic energy = -5(-1.5 ev)
Kinetic energy = 1.5 ev
(ii) The potential energy of the electron
Potential energy = -2 K.E.
Potential energy = -2 1.5
Potential energy = -3.0 eV
(iii) Energy of photon
Energy of photon
Wavelength of гadiation
.
Therefore,
(i) Kinetic energy of the electron = 1.5 ev.
(ii) The potential energy of the electron = -3.0 eV.
(iii) Wavelength of гadiation .
