Question

The energy of an electron in an excited hydrogen atom is –3.4 eV. Calculate the angular momentum of the electron according to Bohr’s theory. Planck’s constant .  

Solution

Correct option is

In hydrogen atom, the energy of electron in the nth energy level is

         

Here   E­n = –3.4 eV. From this, we have    

             n = 2. 

According to Bohr’s theory, the angular momentum of the electron is
