Question

Calculate the speed of an electron revolving in the first orbit around the nucleus of a hydrogen atom in order that in order that it may not be pulled into the nucleus by electrostatic attraction.

Solution

Correct option is

The speed of electron in ‘stable’ orbits of hydrogen-like atoms in given by 

     

For hydrogen atom (Z = 1) and in the first orbit (n = 1), the electron speed is 

      

Substituting the given values : 

    

       .
