Taking the Bohr radius as q0=53 the radius of Li++ion in its ground state, on the basis of Bohr’s model, will be about
A
53 pm
B
27 pm
C
18 pm
D
13 pm
Answer
18 pm
Explanation
Solution
Here, a0=53 pm, n=1 for ground state
For Li++ion,Z=3
Radius of nth orbit
r=4π2mKZe2n2h2=Za0n2
∴r=353×(1)2[∴a0=4π2mKe2h2=53pm]
=17.66≈18pm
