An electron in an excited state ofLi2+ion has angular momentum3h2π. The de Broglie wavelength of the electron in this state ispπα0(wherea0is the Bohr radius). The value ofpis

Answer:
2.00
Solution:

From Bohr's law
mvr=nh2π=3h2π(from eqes.)
⇒n=3
And momentum=mv=3h2πr
Now, radius ofnthshell,r=n2za0
⇒r=323.a0∵ZLi=3
⇒r=3a0
From De Broglie law
wavelength=hMomentum
⇒λ=hmv=h3h2πr
⇒λ=2πr3=2π3×3a0
λ=2πa0=pπa0
⇒P=2
