Ionization potential of a hydrogen atom is $13.6 \text{ eV}$. Hydrogen atoms in the ground state are excited by monochromatic radiation of photon energy $12.1 \text{ eV}$. According to Bohr's theory,the number of spectral lines emitted by the hydrogen atoms will be:

  • A
    two
  • B
    three
  • C
    four
  • D

In the Bohr model of a hydrogen atom,the centripetal force is furnished by the Coulomb attraction between the proton and the electron. If ${a_0}$ is the radius of the ground state orbit,$m$ is the mass,$e$ is the charge on the electron,and ${\varepsilon _0}$ is the vacuum permittivity,the speed of the electron is:

The figure below is the plot of potential energy versus internuclear distance $(d)$ of $H_2$ molecule in the electronic ground state. What is the value of the net potential energy $E_0$ (as indicated in the figure) in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$, for $d=d_0$ at which the electron-electron repulsion and the nucleus-nucleus repulsion energies are absent? As reference, the potential energy of $H$ atom is taken as zero when its electron and the nucleus are infinitely far apart.
