The energy of the highest energy photon of Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum is close to
  • A
    $13.6 eV$
  • $3.4 eV$
  • C
    $1.5 eV$
  • D
    $0.85 eV$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$3.4 eV$
$E=13.6\left[\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2}\right]$.
For highest energy in Balmer series $n_1=2$ and $n_2=\infty \Rightarrow E=13.6\left[\frac{1}{(2)^2}-\frac{1}{(\infty)^2}\right]=3.4 \mathrm{eV}$

What will be the angular momentum of a electron, if energy of this electron in $H$-atom is $1.5 eV$ (in $/$-sec) $\quad$
  • A
    $1.05 \times 10^{-34}$
  • B
    $2.1 \times 10^{-34}$
  • $3.15 \times 10^{-34}$
  • D
    $-2.1 \times 10^{-34}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$3.15 \times 10^{-34}$
Energy of electron in $H$ atom $E_n=\frac{-13.6}{n^2} \mathrm{eV}$
$\Rightarrow-1.5=\frac{-13.6}{n^2} \Rightarrow n^2=\frac{13.6}{1.5}=3$
Now angular momentum$p=n \frac{h}{2 \pi}=\frac{3 \times 6.6 \times 10^{-34}}{2 \times 3.14}=3.15 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{~J} \times \mathrm{sec}$

If $\lambda_{\text {max }}$ is $6563 \mathring A$, then wave length of second line for Balmer series will be
  • $\lambda=\frac{16}{3 R}$
  • B
    $\lambda=\frac{36}{5 R}$
  • C
    $\lambda=\frac{4}{3 R}$
  • D
    None of the above
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\lambda=\frac{16}{3 R}$
For Balmer series $\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{n^2}\right)$ where $n=3,4,5$
For second line $n=4$
So $\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{4^2}\right)=\frac{3}{16} R \Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{16}{3 R}$

  • $224$
  • B
    $256$
  • C
    $98$
  • D
    $108$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$224$
According to scattering formula
$ N \propto \frac{1}{\sin ^4(\theta / 2)} \Rightarrow \frac{N_2}{N_1}=\left[\frac{\sin \left(\theta_1 / 2\right)}{\sin \left(\theta_2 / 2\right)}\right]^4$
$\Rightarrow \frac{N_2}{N_1}=\left[\frac{\sin \frac{90^{\circ}}{2}}{\sin \frac{60^{\circ}}{2}}\right]^4=\left[\frac{\sin 45^{\circ}}{\sin 30^{\circ}}\right]^4 $
$\Rightarrow N_2=(\sqrt{2})^4 \times N_1=4 \times 56=224$

When the electron in the hydrogen atom jumps from $2^{-}$orbit to $1^{-}$ orbit, the wavelength of radiation emitted is $\lambda$. When the electrons jump from 3 orbit to 1 orbit, the wavelength of emitted radiation would be
  • $\frac{27}{32} \lambda$
  • B
    $\frac{32}{27} \lambda$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3} \lambda$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{2} \lambda$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{27}{32} \lambda$
$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left[\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2}\right]$
First condition $\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left[\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{2^2}\right] \Rightarrow R=\frac{4}{3 \lambda}$
Second condition $\frac{1}{\lambda^{\prime}}=R\left[\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}\right]$
$\Rightarrow \lambda^{\prime}=\frac{9}{8 R} \Rightarrow \lambda^{\prime}=\frac{9}{8 \times \frac{4}{3 \lambda}}=\frac{27 \lambda}{32}$

The ratio of the speed of the electron in the first Bohr orbit of hydrogen and the speed of light is equal to (where $e, h$ and $c$ have their usual meanings)
  • A
    $2 \pi h c / e^2$
  • B
    $e^2 h / 2 \pi c$
  • C
    $e^2 c / 2 \pi h$
  • $2 \pi e^2 / h c$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$2 \pi e^2 / h c$
Speed of electron in $n$ orbit (in CGS)$v_n=\frac{2 \pi Z e^2}{n h}(k=1)$
For first orbit $H_2 ; n=1$ and $Z=1$
So $v=\frac{2 \pi e^2}{h} \Rightarrow \frac{v}{c}=\frac{2 \pi e^2}{h c}$

In terms of Rydberg's constant $R$, the wave number of the first Balmer line is
  • A
    $R$
  • B
    $3 R$
  • $\frac{5 R}{36}$
  • D
    $\frac{8 R}{9}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{5 R}{36}$
Wave number$=\frac{1}{\lambda}=R\left(\frac{1}{n_1^2}-\frac{1}{n_2^2}\right)$For first Balmer line $n=2, n=3$
$\therefore \text { Wave number }=R\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2}\right)=R\left(\frac{9-4}{9 \times 4}\right)=\frac{5 R}{36}$
