Question
When an electron jumps from the second orbit to fourth orbit, its distance from nucleus increases by 2.116 Å. The atom or ion should be
Options
A.H atom
B.He+ ion
C.Li2+ ion
D.Be3+ ion
Solution
$r_{4} - r_{2} = 2.116\overset{o}{A} \Rightarrow 0.529 \times \frac{4^{2}}{z} - 0.529 \times \frac{2^{2}}{z} = 2.116$
$\therefore z = 3 \Rightarrow Li^{2 +}\text{ ion}$
