An electron is in an excited state in a hydrogen-like atom. It has a total energy of-3.4 eV.The kinetic energy of the electron isEand its de Broglie wavelength isλ

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

PE=-2 KE=-2E

Total Energy= PE+KE=-2E+E =-E

⇒-E= -3.4 eV

or E=3.4 eV

Letpis momentum andmis mass of the electron

E=p22m

orp= (2mE).

de Broglie wavelengthλ=hp=h(2mE) 

λ=6.6 x 10-10 m
