The gyromagnetic ratio of an electron in a hydrogen atom, according to Bohr model is

  1. A decreases with the quantum number ' \(n\) '
  2. B independent of which orbit it is in
  3. C negative
  4. D positive
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) independent of which orbit it is in

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(
\begin{aligned}
& \text {Gyromagnetic ratio }=\frac{\text { Magnetic Moment }}{\text { Angular Momentum }} \\
& =\frac{\mathrm{iA}}{\mathrm{mvr}}=\frac{\left(\frac{\mathrm{e} \omega}{2 \pi}\right)\left(\pi \mathrm{r}^2\right)}{\mathrm{m}(\mathrm{r} \omega) \mathrm{r}}=\frac{\mathrm{e}}{2 \mathrm{~m}}
\end{aligned}
\)
It is independent of the orbit of the electron
