In the first excited state of hydrogen atom, its radius is found to be 21.2xx10^(-11) m. Calculate its Bohr radius in the ground state. Also calculate the total energy of the atom in the second excited state.

Answer»

SOLUTION :First excited STATE means,
n=2
`r_(0)=n^(2)r_(1)`
`r_(1)=(21.2xx10^(-11))/(4)`
`=5.3xx10^(11)m`
`E=-(13.6)/(n^(2))=-3.4eV`.
