    Energy of an electron in an excited hydrogen atom is ? 3.4 eV. Its angular momentum will be: \[h=6.626\times {{10}^{-34}}J-s\] [UPSEAT 1999; Kerala PET 2002]

    A)            \[1.11\times {{10}^{34}}J\ \sec \]                                   

    B)            \[1.51\times {{10}^{-31}}J\ \sec \]

    C)            \[2.11\times {{10}^{-34}}J\ \sec \]                                  

    D)            \[3.72\times {{10}^{-34}}J\ \sec \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       The electron is in the second orbit (n=2)            Hence \[L=\frac{nh}{2\pi }=\frac{2h}{2\pi }=\frac{6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}}{\pi }\]\[=2.11\times {{10}^{-34}}J\text{-}sec\]
