When an electron orbiting in hydrogen atom in its ground state jumps to higher excited state, the de-Broglie wavelength associated with it
- A will become zero.
- B will remain same.
- C will decrease.
- D will increase.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) will increase.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
As \(\mathrm{v} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{n}}\), we can also write \(\therefore \quad \mathrm{mv} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{n}} \quad \Rightarrow \mathrm{p} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{n}}\)
Also,
\(\lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{p}} \quad \Rightarrow \lambda \propto \mathrm{n}\)
\(\therefore \quad\) Wavelength will increase.
Also,
\(\lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{p}} \quad \Rightarrow \lambda \propto \mathrm{n}\)
\(\therefore \quad\) Wavelength will increase.
