Question

In a hydrogen atom, if energy of an electron $1 n$ ground state is $13.6 . \mathrm{ev}$, then that in the $2^{	ext {nd }}$ excited state is

Aicharya · Accepted Answer

$2^{	ext {nd }}$ excited state will be the $3^{	ext {rd }}$ energy level $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{n}}=\frac{13.6}{\mathrm{n}^{2}} \mathrm{eV}$ or $\mathrm{E}=\frac{13.6}{9} \mathrm{eV}=1.51 \mathrm{eV}$
