Question 13: NCERT Solutions for 12th Class Physics: Chapter 12-Atoms
Obtain an expression for the frequency of radiation emitted when a hydrogen atom de-excites from level n to level (n – 1). For large n, show that this frequency equals the classical frequency of revolution of the electron in the orbit.
Solution:
Let us first find the frequency of revolution of electron in the orbit classically. In Bohr’s model velocity of electron in nth
Now, let us find the frequency of radiation emitted when a hydrogen atom de-excites from level h to level (n – 1).
Equation (i) and (ii) are equal, hence for large value of n, the classical frequency of revolution of electron in nth orbit is same as frequency of radiation when electron de-excite from level n to(n – l).
