Angular momentum of an electron in a hydrogen atom is 3h/π, then the energy of the electron is _____ eV. (a) -1.51 (b) -0.85 (c) -0.38 (d) -0.28

Answer: (c). L = (nh)/(2π); given L = 3h/π = (6h)/(2π), so n = 6. E₆ = (-13.6)/(36) = -0.38 eV So the answer is (c) -0.38 eV.

Energy of the Electron & Energy Levels

Angular momentum of an electron in a hydrogen atom is $\frac{3h}{\pi}$ , then the energy of the electron is _____ eV.

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

$L = \frac{nh}{2\pi}$ ; given $L = \frac{3h}{\pi} = \frac{6h}{2\pi}$ , so $n = 6$ .
$E_6 = \frac{-13.6}{36} = -0.38$ eV
So the answer is (c) $-0.38$ eV.
