  1. Question 1

    Q1. The radius of the nth orbit of hydrogen atom is given by rn = n² * r1, where r1 = 0.53 Å. What is the radius of the 4th orbit?

    • A) 8.48 Å
    • B) 4.24 Å
    • C) 0.53 Å
    • D) 2.12 Å

    Answer: 8.48 Å

    Explanation: Substitute n = 4 into rn = n² * r1 to get r4 = 16 * 0.53 = 8.48 Å.
