Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2020

The radius of the second Bohr orbit, in terms of the Bohr radius, a0, in Li2+ is :

  1. A ${{2{a_0}} \over 9}$
  2. B ${{2{a_0}} \over 3}$
  3. C ${{4{a_0}} \over 9}$
  4. D ${{4{a_0}} \over 3}$ Correct answer

Solution

${r_n} = {{{n^2}{a_0}} \over Z}$ <br><br>For 2<sup>nd</sup> Bohr orbit of Li<sup>+2</sup> <br><br>n = 2 <br><br>and Z = 3 <br><br>r = ${{{2^2}{a_0}} \over 3}$ = ${{4{a_0}} \over 3}$
