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.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`therefore " "`Kinetic energy , Ke = `+ T.E. = 13.6` eV
Potential energy , Pe = 2 T.E. = `2 (-13.6) = -27.2 eV.`
