Radius of the third shell of H-atom is

Correct answer: B. 4.761 Å

  • A. 5.761 Å
  • B. 4.761 Å
  • C. 6.671 Å
  • D. 3.716 Å

Explanation

The radius of an orbit is given by,r=4π2mZe2n2h2 Substituting the values of h, m, Z=1 for hydrogen and the electron charge army be calculated asr=0.529×n2 ÅFor n=3r=4.761 Å

About Atomic Structure

Atomic structure covers the discovery of the proton, Planck's quantum theory, hydrogen emission spectra and the evidence for quantized energy levels. You will use quantum numbers to describe orbitals, distinguish s, p, d and f orbital shapes, and write electronic configurations, including the correct order of electron filling.
