Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: In a hydrogen atom,the frequency of radiation emitted when an electron jumps from a lower energy orbit $(E_1)$ to a higher energy orbit $(E_2)$ is given as $hf = E_1 - E_2$.
Statement $II$: The jumping of an electron from a higher energy orbit $(E_2)$ to a lower energy orbit $(E_1)$ is associated with the frequency of radiation given as $f = (E_2 - E_1) / h$.
This condition is Bohr's frequency condition. In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  • A
    Both statement $I$ and statement $II$ are true.
  • B
    Both statement $I$ and statement $II$ are false.
  • C
    Statement $I$ is correct but statement $II$ is false.
  • D
    Statement $I$ is incorrect but statement $II$ is true.

How many times does the electron go round the first Bohr orbit in a second?

To calculate the size of a hydrogen ion $(H^-)$ using the Bohr's model,we assume that its two electrons move in an orbit such that they are always on diametrically opposite sides of the nucleus. With each electron having the angular momentum $\hbar = h / 2\pi$ and taking electron interaction into account,the radius of the orbit in terms of the Bohr's radius of hydrogen atom $a_B = \frac{4\pi\varepsilon_0\hbar^2}{me^2}$ is

The de-Broglie wavelength associated with an electron of a hydrogen atom in its ground state is (in $\text{ Å}$)

The wavelength of the energy emitted when an electron transitions from the fourth orbit to the second orbit in a hydrogen atom is $20.397 \, cm$. The wavelength of the energy for the same transition in $He^+$ is .......... $cm$.

The radius of the first permitted Bohr orbit for the electron in a hydrogen atom equals $0.53 \mathring{A}$ and its ground state energy equals $-13.6 \; eV$. If the electron in the hydrogen atom is replaced by a muon $(\mu^{-})$ [charge same as electron and mass $207 m_{e}$], the first Bohr radius and ground state energy will be:
