AI Generated Solution

To solve the question, we need to determine the energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom transitions from an excited state back to the ground state. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Ionization Energy**: The ionization energy of hydrogen in the excited state is given as +0.85 eV. This means that if we provide 0.85 eV of energy to the electron in the excited state, it will be able to escape from the atom. 2. **Know the Ionization Energy of Hydrogen**: ...
