The energy required by electrons, present in the first Bohr orbit of hydrogen atom to be excited to second Bohr orbit is ____ J mol^-1. Given : R_H = 2.18 × 10^-11 ergs.

  1. 1.635 × 10^-18
  2. 9.835 × 10^5
  3. 9.835 × 10^12
  4. 1.635 × 10^-11

Correct answer: 9.835 × 10^5

Solution

The correct option is right because the energy difference between the first and second Bohr orbits in a hydrogen atom can be calculated using the formula for the energy levels in the Bohr model, which shows that the energy required for the transition corresponds to 9.835 × 10^5 J mol^-1.
