Q38NEET 2020 · PHASE 2Easy

Energy of the Electron & Energy Levels

The total energy of an electron in the $n$ th stationary orbit of the hydrogen atom can be obtained by

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Ground state energy of hydrogen is $-13.6\text{ eV}$ and $E_n \propto \frac{1}{n^2}$ .
$E_n = -\frac{13.6}{n^2}\text{ eV}$
So the answer is (c).
