To which quantum level does the electron...

To which quantum level does the electron jump in H atom from the lowest level if it is given an energy corresponding to `99%` of the ionization potential of hydrogen atom?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
10
Energy given `=99%(IE)" "=(99)/(100)xx13.6eV`
Let the electron jump from ground state to nth state on absorbing the given energy.
`rArr" "E_(n)-E_(1)=0.99xx13.6eV" "rArr" "13.6((1)/(1^(2))-(1)/(n^(2)))=0.99xx13.6" "rArr" "1-(1)/(n^(2))=0.99`
`rArr" "n^(2)=100" "rArr" "n=10`
