Solution
Verified
As we know atom is the smallest unit of elements which is combine to form molecules and the molecules are combining to form the matter. Also, we know that the first direct observation of atoms was in brownian motion which give accurate sizes for atoms in range . Also, we know that the atom consists of electrons, protons and neutrons. We know that the charge-to-mass ratios are given by
Where, the mass of the electron is and the mass of proton is .
According to Bohr's theory of Hydrogen atom, atomic and molecular spectra are quantized with hydrogen spectrum wavelength which is given by
Where, is the wavelength of the emitted electromagnetic radiation and is the Rydberg constant.
