Energy E of a hydrogen atom with principal quantum number n is given by E= -13.6 n^2 eV . The energy of a photon ejected when the electron jumps for n=3 state n=2 state of hydrogen is approximately
Options
- A1.5 eV
- B0.85 eV
- C3.4 eV
- D1.9 eV
Correct answer
D. 1.9 eV
Step-by-step solution
Energy of photon =E₂-E₂ gathered = 13.6 9 - ( -13.6 9 )= 5 30 13.6 =1.9 eV gathered
