Q.
The energy required to excite an electron in hydrogen atom to its first excited state is, the frequency of emitted photon due to the given transition is (h=6.64×10−34Js,1eV=1.6×10−19J)
From Bohr’s third postulate of atomic theory the frequency of emitted photon hυ=E2−E1=10.2eV ∴υ=h10.2eV
Here,10.2ev=10.2×1.6×10−19J, h=6.64×10−34Js ∴υ=6.64×10−3410.2×1.6×10−19 =2.46×1015Hz
