Chemistry Question on Bohr’s Model for Hydrogen Atom
Ionisation energy of He+ is 19.6×10−18J atom−1. The energy of the first stationary state (n=1) of Li2+ is
A
4.41×10−16Jatom−1
B
−4.41×10−17Jatom−1
C
−2.2×10−15Jatom−1
D
8.82×10−17Jatom−1
Answer
−4.41×10−17Jatom−1
Explanation
Solution
I.E=n2Z2×13.6eV...(i)
or I2I1=n12Z12×Z22n22...(ii)
Given I1=−19.6×10−18,Z1=2,
n1=1,Z2=3andn2=1
Substituting these values in equation (ii).
−I219.6×10−18=14×91
or I2=19.6×10−18×49
=−4.41×10−17J/atom
