The angular momentum of an electron in the third orbit of a hydrogen atom is (Given $h = 6.6 × 10^{-34} Js$) |
$3.15 × 10^{-34} Js$ $5.13 × 10^{-34} Js$ $3.15 × 10^{-36} Js$ $5.15 × 10^{-36} Js$ |
$3.15 × 10^{-34} Js$ |
The correct answer is Option (1) → $3.15 × 10^{-34} Js$ The angular momentum of an electron in the nth orbit of a hydrogen atom is $L = n \frac{h}{2\pi}$ For $n = 3$: $L = 3 \frac{6.6 \times 10^{-34}}{2 \pi}$ $L = \frac{19.8 \times 10^{-34}}{6.283}$ $L \approx 3.15 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{Js}$ $L = 3.15 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{Js}$ |
