The energy of the electron in the ground state of hydrogen atom is `-13.6 eV`. Find the kinetic energy and potential energy of electron in this state.

Explanation

Ground state energy of hydrogen atom `E=13.6 eV`
This is the total energy of a hydrogen atom kinetic energy is equal to the negative of the total energy
Kinetic energy `=-E=-(-13.6)=13.6 eV`
Potential energy is equal to the negative of two times of kinetic energy
Potential energy `=-2xx(13.6)=-27.2 eV`
