Chemistry Question on Bohr’s Model for Hydrogen Atom
The ionization enthalpy of He+ionis19.60×10−18Jatom−1. The ionization enthalpy of Li2+ ion will be
A
84.2×10−18Jatom−1
B
44.10×10−18Jatom−1
C
63.20×10−18Jatom−1
D
21.20×10−18Jatom−1
Answer
44.10×10−18Jatom−1
Explanation
Solution
Ionisation enthalpy ∝Z2(Z=Atomicnumder) Ionisation enthalpy of Li2+=I.E.ofHe+×(2232) I.E.ofLi2+=19.6×10−18×49=44.1×10−18Jatom−1
