In a mixture of `H- He^(+)` gas (`He+ `is singly ionized He atom), `H` atom and `He+` ions are excited to their respective first excited state. Subsequently `H` atoms transfer their total excitation energy to `He+` ions (by collisions) Assume that the bohr model of atom is exactly valid.
The quantum number `n` of the state finally populated in `He^(+)` inos is -

A

2

B

3

C

4

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

For `H` atom `DeltaE=10.2 eV`, This goes to excite `He^(+)` ion from `n=2` to `n=4`
