Chemistry Question on Structure of atom
In an atom, an electron is moving with a speed of 600m/s with an accuracy of 0.005%. Certainity with which the position of the electron can be located is (h=6.6?10−34kgm2s−1 , mass of electron, em=9.1?10−kg )
A
1.52?10−4m
B
5.10?10−3m
C
1.92?10−3m
D
3.84?10−3m
Answer
1.92?10−3m
Explanation
Solution
Δx.mΔv=4πh Δx=4πmΔvh Δv=600×1000.005=0.03 ⇒Δx=4×3.14×9.1×10−31×0.036.625×10−34=1.92×10−3m
