    A hydrogen atom in ground state absorbs 10.2 eV of energy. The orbital angular momentum of the electron is increased by
    (a) 1.05 × 10-34 J s
    (b) 2.11 × 10-34 J s
    (c) 3.16 × 10-34 J s
    (d) 4.22 × 10-34 J s
    digAnsr:   a
    Ans : (a) 1.05 × 10-34 J s
    Let after absorption of energy, the hydrogen atom goes to the nth excited state.
    Therefore, the energy absorbed can be written as
    `` 10.2=13.6\times \left(\frac{1}{{1}^{2}}-\frac{1}{{n}^{2}}\right)``
    `` \Rightarrow \frac{10.2}{13.6}=1-\frac{1}{{n}^{2}}``
    `` \Rightarrow \frac{1}{{n}^{2}}=\frac{13.6-10.2}{13.6}``
    `` \Rightarrow \frac{1}{{n}^{2}}=\frac{3.4}{13.6}``
    `` \Rightarrow {n}^{2}=4``
    `` \Rightarrow n=2``
    `` ``
    The orbital angular momentum of the electron in the nth state is given by
    `` {L}_{\,\mathrm{\,n\,}}=\frac{nh}{2\pi }``
    Change in the angular momentum, `` ∆L=\frac{2h}{2\pi }-\frac{h}{2\pi }=\frac{h}{2\pi }``
    ∴ `` ∆L=1.05\times {10}^{-34}\,\mathrm{\,Js\,}``
