Bohr's model is applicable for single electron atom of atomic number \(Z\). Dependency of frequency of rotation of electron in \(n^{\text {th }}\) principal quantum number is proportional to
✓ Correct answer: b)
\(Z^2 / n^3\)
ExplanationStep 1: Understanding Bohr’s Model
-
In Bohr’s atomic model, an electron revolves in a circular orbit with quantized angular momentum.
-
The frequency of revolution (\(f\)) is given by:
\(f=\frac{v}{2\pi r}\)where:
- \(v\) is the electron's speed in orbit,
- \(r\) is the radius of the orbit.
-
Velocity of electron in the \(n\)n-th orbit:
\({v}_{n}\propto \frac{Z}{n}\) -
Radius of the orbit:
\({r}_{n}\propto \frac{{n}^{2}}{Z}\)
Using \(f=\frac{v}{2\pi r}\)
\({f}_{n}\propto \frac{\frac{Z}{n}}{\frac{{n}^{2}}{Z}}\)
\({f}_{n}\propto \frac{{Z}^{2}}{{n}^{3}}\)
