To show that the ground state energy of an electron in the hydrogen atom (H) is equal to the first excited state energy of an electron in the helium ion (He⁺), we will use the formula for the energy levels of hydrogen-like atoms. ### Step 1: Write the formula for the energy levels of hydrogen-like atoms. The energy of an electron in the nth orbit of a hydrogen-like atom is given by the formula: \[ E_n = -\frac{13.6 \, Z^2}{n^2} \, \text{eV} \] where \( Z \) is the atomic number and \( n \) is the principal quantum number. ...
