A hydrogen atom in the ground state absorbs, E amount of energy. If the orbital angular momentum of the electron is increased by h2π(h= Plank constant), then the magnitude of ΔE is

  1. A 12.09eV
  2. B 12.75eV
  3. C 10.2eV
  4. D 13.6eV
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 10.2eV

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The electron goes to its first excited state (n=2) from the ground state (n=1) after absorbing 10.2 eV energy ∴ Increase in the momentum =h2π.
