Vedclass · Answer

(B) The radius of the $n^{th}$ Bohr orbit is given by $r_n = a_0 n^2$. Given the ratio of radii is $\frac{r_{n_1}}{r_{n_2}} = \frac{n_1^2}{n_2^2} = \frac{1}{4}$,which implies $\frac{n_1}{n_2} = \frac{1}{2}$. Since the orbits are among the first four $(n = 1, 2, 3, 4)$,the possible pairs $(n_1, n_2)$ are $(1, 2)$ or $(2, 4)$. The energy of the $n^{th}$ orbit is $E_n = -\frac{13.6}{n^2} \ eV$. For the pair $(1, 2)$,the energy difference is $\Delta E = E_2 - E_1 = -\frac{13.6}{4} - (-13.6) = -3.4 + 13.6 = 10.2 \ eV$. For the pair $(2, 4)$,the energy difference is $\Delta E = E_4 - E_2 = -\frac{13.6}{16} - (-\frac{13.6}{4}) = -0.85 + 3.4 = 2.55 \ eV$.
