Atoms and Nuclei

Question

The angular momentum for the electron in Bohr's orbit is L. If the electron is assumed to revolve in second orbit of hydrogen atom, then the change in angular momentum will be

Accepted Answer

Option A. According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom, the angular momentum of an electron in an orbit is an integral multiple of Planck's constant divided by … (or …, where … is the Planck's constant). This can be expressed as:
