JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 12. atoms

In the Bohr model an electron moves in a circular orbit around the proton . Considering the orbiting electron to be a circular current loop, the magnetic moment of the hydrogen atom; when the electron is in \(n^{th}\) excited state, is

  1. A \(\left( {\frac{e}{{2m}}\frac{{{n^2}h}}{{2\pi }}} \right)\)
  2. B \(\left( {\frac{e}{{m}}} \right)\frac{{nh}}{{2\pi }}\)
  3. C \(\left( {\frac{e}{{2m}}} \right)\frac{{nh}}{{2\pi }}\)
  4. D \(\left( {\frac{e}{m}} \right)\frac{{{n^2}h}}{{2\pi }}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\left( {\frac{e}{{2m}}} \right)\frac{{nh}}{{2\pi }}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic moment of the hydrogen atom, when the electron is in \(\mathrm{n}^{\text {th }}\) excited state, i.e., \(n^{\prime}=(n+1)\) As magnetic moment…
