Check the correctness of the following statements regarding Bohr model of hydrogen atom
(i) The angular momentum of electron in n = 2 orbit is more than in the n = 1 orbit
(ii) The KE of electron in the n = 2 orbit is more than in the n = 1 orbit
(iii) The acceleration of electron in the n = 2 orbit is more than in the n = 1 orbit
Mark which of the following is correct ?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
Centripetal acceleration 
Further, as 
increased 
also increase. Therefore centripetal acceleration for 
is less than that for 
. So statement (iii) is wrong. Statement (i) and (ii) are correct.
