Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula used for the radius of the
n^(th) orbit will be,


r_n=(n^2* 52.9)/(Z) (in pm)

where,


r_n = radius of
n^(th) orbit

n = number of orbit

Z = atomic number

Radius of the first orbit, n = 1


r_1=(1^2* 52.9)/(Z)=(1* 52.9)/(Z)..[1]

Radius of the third orbit, n = 3


r_3=(3^2* 52.9)/(Z)=(9* 52.9)/(Z)..[2]

[1] ÷ [2]


(r_1)/(r_3)=((1* 52.9)/(Z))/((9* 52.9)/(Z))


r_1* 9=r_3

The radius of the 3rd orbit is nine times the radius of first orbit.

Answer:


\boxed{\text{(D) Nine times the radius of the first orbit}}

Step-by-step explanation:

On the basis of Bohr's model, the radius of the nth orbit is

r = a₀n²

where a₀ is a constant called the Bohr radius.

r₃\r₁ = (a₀ × 3)²/(a₀ × 1)² = 9/1 = 9

The radius of the third Bohr orbit is nine times the radius of the first orbit.
