JEE Main & Advanced Chemistry Structure of Atom / परमाणु संरचना Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Structure of Atom

  • question_answer
    If m and e are the mass and charge of the revolving electron in the orbit of radius r for hydrogen atom, the total energy of the revolving electron will be:

    A) \[\frac{1}{2}\frac{{{e}^{2}}}{r}\]       

    B) \[-\frac{{{e}^{2}}}{r}\]

    C) \[\frac{m{{e}^{2}}}{r}\]         

    D) \[-\frac{1}{2}\frac{{{e}^{2}}}{r}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]  Total energy of a revolving electron is the sum of its kinetic and potential energy. Total energy \[=K.E.+P.E.\] \[=\frac{{{e}^{2}}}{2r}+\left( -\frac{{{e}^{2}}}{r} \right)=-\frac{{{e}^{2}}}{2r}\]
