Ionisation potential of hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV . Hydrogen atom on the ground state rarely excited by monochromatic radiation of photon 12.1 eV . The special line emitted by a hydrogen atom according to Bohr's theory will be
Options
- Aone
- Btwo
- Cthree
- Dfour
Correct answer
C. three
Step-by-step solution
From the relation E₃-E₁=(-1.5)-(-13.6)=12.1 As the energy is equal to the energy taken by n=1, n=2, n=3 . Hence there will be three spectral line.
