Find the quantum number n corresponding ...

Find the quantum number n corresponding to nth excited state of `He^(++)` ion if on transition to the ground state the ion emits two photons in succession with wavelength 108.5 nm and 30.4 nm. The ionization energy of the hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`n=5`
`E(ev)=(1240)/(lambda(nm))`
Energy of 1st photon `=(1240)/(108.5)=11.428eV`
Energy of 2st photon `=(1240)/(30.4)=40.79eV`
`En=52.217-54.4=-2.182eV(E_(1)=-54.4eV)`
`-2.182=(13.6xx4)/(n^(2))implies n=5`
