JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 12. atoms

Two electrons are moving in orbits of two hydrogen like atoms with speeds \(3 \times 10^5 m / s\) and \(2.5 \times 10^5 m / s\) respectively. If the radii of these orbits are nearly same then the possible order of energy states are _________ respectively.

  1. A 6 and 5
  2. B 9 and 8
  3. C 8 and 10
  4. D 10 and 12
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 6 and 5

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( V\propto\frac{Z}{n} \) \( r\propto\frac{n^{2}}{Z} \) Thus; \( r\propto\frac{n}{v} \) Radii are same then \( \frac{n_{1}}{V_{1}}=\frac{n_{2}}{V_{2}} \) \( \frac{n_{1}}{n_{2}}=\frac{3\times10^{5}}{2.5\times10^{5}}=\frac{6}{5} \) Possible order is 6 and 5
