If n is the orbit number of the electron in a hydrogen atom , the correct statement among the following is

Options

A. electron energy varies as `n^(2)`
B. electron energy increases as n increases
C. hydrogen emits infrared rays for the electron transition from `n=oo` to n=1
D. electron energy is zero for n=1

Answer

A

Explanation

`E=-(13.6)/(n^(2))eV`
Hence, electron energy increases as n increases
