Question

What atomic number of an element X would have to become so that the 4th orbit around would fit inside the 1 both orbit of the h atom


going to hostel tomorrow.. :(​

Answer 1

16

•By definition of Bohr radius ao,

•r=n2(Zao),r= radical distance from the nucleus of a H-like atom

•So, if we want r=ao,

•Z=n2(rao)=n2(aoao)=n2

•For the 4th Bohr orbit, n=4,

•⇒Z=42=16

It's so Chad to hear!!..but still have a gud luck!

Answer 2

Explanation:

By definition of Bohr radius a

o

,

r=n

(

Z

a

o

),r= radical distance from the nucleus of a H-like atom

So, if we want r=a

o

,

Z=n

(

r

a

)=n

(

a

For the 4

th

Bohr orbit, n=4,

⇒Z=4

=16
