Detailed Solution

Bohr's quantization condition is

L=nh2π.

Given L=3h2π. 

Hence, 

3h2π = nh2π n=3

Also,  

mvr=3h2π mv=3h2πr

de-Broglie wavelength is given by:

λ=hmv=h3h2πr=2πr3            (1)

Radius of the electron in the nth orbit is:

r=r0n2Z

For Lithium, Z = 3.

We have seen that n=3. Therefore,

  r=r0×332=3r0             (2)

Using (2) in (1), we get:

  λ=2π3×3r0=2πr0
