Not considering the electronic spin, the degeneracy of the second excited state (n = 33) of H atom is 99, while the degeneracy of the second excited state of H−{H}^{-} is :

Correct answer

3

Step-by-step solution

Energy order of orbitals of H is decided by only principle quantum number (n) while energy order of H−{H}^{-} is decided by (n+l)( n + l ) rule:
Electronic configuration of ′H−′′{H}^{-}′ is −1s2- 1{s}^{2} its energy order is decided by n+ln + l rule.
H−=1s22s02p0{H}^{-} = 1{s}^{2}2{s}^{0}2{p}^{0}
Its 2nd{2}^{nd} excited state is 2p
And degeneracy 2pis32pis3.
