Energy of the Electron & Energy Levels

The energy of He+\text{He}^+ ion in its first excited state is, (The ground state energy for the Hydrogen atom is −13.6 eV)-13.6\text{ eV}):

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. En=−13.6 Z2n2E_n = -13.6\,\frac{Z^2}{n^2} eV; for He+^+, Z=2Z = 2, first excited state n=2n = 2.
  2. E2=−13.6×44=−13.6E_2 = -13.6 \times \frac{4}{4} = -13.6 eV
  3. So the answer is (a) −13.6-13.6 eV.
