According to Bohr's theory, the angular momentum for an electron of $3 \mathrm{rd}$ orbit is

  • Correct answer
    A
    $3 \hbar$
  • B
    $1.5 \hbar$
  • C
    $9 \hbar$
  • D
    $2 \frac{\hbar}{\pi}$

Solution

Angular momentum, mvr $\begin{array}{l} =\frac{\mathrm{nh}}{2 \pi}=\frac{3 \times \mathrm{h}}{2 \pi}=\frac{1.5 \mathrm{~h}}{\pi} \\ =3 \mathrm{~h}\left[\because \mathrm{h}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{2 \pi}\right] \end{array}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
