JEE Main2015ChemistryStructure of AtomActual
Which of the following is the energy of a possible excited state of hydrogen?
Options
- A+ 6.8 eV
- B+ 13.6 eV
- C- 6.8 eV
- D- 3.4 eV
Correct answer
D. - 3.4 eV
Step-by-step solution
E n = − 13.6 × Z 2 n 2 e V Z = 1 f o r H . E n = - 13.6 n 2 eV Where n = 2 ⇒ E 2 = - 3.40 eV
