A hydrogen atom in ground state absorbs 10.2 eV of energy. The orbital angular momentum of the electron is increased by-
A
1.05 × 10–34Js
B
2.11 × 10–34Js
C
3.16 × 10–34Js
D
4.22 × 10–34Js
Answer
1.05 × 10–34Js
Explanation
Solution
DE = E2 – E1 = 10.2eV = –3.4eV + 13.6eV
so, n2 = 2 & n1 = 1
DL = 2π2h–2πh=2πh=2×3.146.63×10–34J.s
= 1.05 × 10–34J.s
