Energy of the Electron & Energy Levels question from JEE Main 2011 (AIEEE)

Q47JEE Main 2011 · AIEEEMedium

Energy of the Electron & Energy Levels

Energy required for the electron excitation in Li++\text{Li}^{++} from the first to the third Bohr orbit is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. ΔE=13.6 Z2(112−132)\Delta E = 13.6\,Z^2\left(\frac{1}{1^2} - \frac{1}{3^2}\right) eV with Z=3Z = 3.
  2. ΔE=13.6×9×89=108.8\Delta E = 13.6 \times 9 \times \frac{8}{9} = 108.8 eV
  3. So the answer is (b) 108.8108.8 eV.
