The energy levels of a hypothetical one electron atom are shown in figure

Find the ionization potential of the atom.

A

`11.2 eV`

B

`13.5 eV`

C

`15.6 eV`

D

`12.6 eV`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Given that`E_(1) = - 15.6 eV, E_(oo) = 0 eV`
Ionzation energy of the aton:
`E_(oo) - E_(1) = 0 - (- 15.6 eV) = 15.6 eV`
So, ionization potential `= 15.6 eV`
