Q28.The de-Broglie wavelength associated with the electron in the n = 4 level is: (1) Half of the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron (2) Four times the de-Broglie wavelength of the in the ground state electron in the ground state (3) 1 th of the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron (4) Two times the de-Broglie wavelength of the 4 in the ground state electron in the ground state

What This Question Tests

This question combines the de-Broglie hypothesis with Bohr's model of the atom to find the relationship between the de-Broglie wavelength of an electron and its principal quantum number.

Concepts Tested

De-Broglie wavelengthBohr's quantization conditionHydrogen atom energy levels and radii

Formulas Used

λ = h/p

mvr = nh/(2π)

r_n ∝ n²

v_n ∝ 1/n
