If first excitation potential of a hydrogen-like atom is V electron volt, then the ionization energy of this atom will be
Options
- AV electron volt
- B3 V 4 electron volt
- C4 V 3 electron volt
- DCannot be calculated by given information
Correct answer
C. 4 V 3 electron volt
Step-by-step solution
First excitation energy = Rhc 1 1 2 - 1 2 2 = Rhc 3 4 ∴    3 4 Rhc = V  eV ∴    Rhc = 4 V 3   eV
