Obtain an epressionfor thefrequencyof radiationemitted whena hydrogen atom de- excites from levle(n-1). Forlarge n, show thatthis frequency equals to classical frequency of revolutionof the electron in the orbit .

Answer»

Solution :We know that energy of an electron in hydrogenatom in in level is given by
`E_(n) = ( me^(4))/(8 in_(0)^(2) n^(2) h^(2))`
`THEREFORE `Frequency of radiation emiited when a hydrogen ATOM de - excits from level n to level (n -1) .
` v = (1)/(h) [E_(n) - E_(n-1)] = (m e^(4))/( 8in_(0)^(2) h^(3))[(1)/((n-1)) - (1)/(n^(2))] = (m e^(4))/(8 in_(0)^(2) h^(3)). ((2n-1))/(n^(2) (n-1)^(2))`
If n is very LARGE , then `1 lt lt n`andhence , the aboverelationis modified as .
`v = (m e^(4))/(4 in_(0)^(2) h^(2))`
As perclassical model of atom , linear SPEED of electron in an ORBITOF radius r is given by .
` v= (e)/(sqrt(4 pi in_(0) mr))`
andfrequency of radiation = frequencyof orbitat motionof electron .
`v_(0) = (v)/(2pir) = sqrt((e^(2))/(16pi^(2) in_(0) mr^(3)))`
If we calculatethe value of v and `v_(0)`thenwe findthat theanswerare almostthe same .
