Use de broglie's hypothesis to determine the speed of the electron in a hydrogen atom when in the n = 5 orbit, whose radius is 1.3×10−9 m . five de broglie wavelengths should fit around the n = 5 orbit. express your answer with the appropriate units.

Velocity = 4.41×10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

The force of attraction between the nucleus and the electron is equal to the centrifugal force acting on the  outermost electron due to circular rotation. It can be mathematically written as:

Where,

K is the Coulomb's constant having value 9×10⁹ N. m²/C²

q is the charge on the electron or the proton which is 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C

r is the radius of the atom

m is the mass of the electron having value 9.1×10⁻³¹ Kg

v is the velocity of the electron.

The equation can be written to calculate the velocity as:

Given that:

r = 1.3×10⁻⁹ m

So,

Velocity = 4.41×10⁵ m/s

water and alcohols have similar properties because water molecules contain hydroxyl groups that can form hydrogen bonds with other water molecules and with alcohol molecules, and likewise alcohol molecules can form hydrogen bonds with other alcohol molecules as well as with water.
