Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) B, C, D and E only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A. The ionization energy of hydrogen from ground state is \( 13.6 \text{ eV} \approx 2.179 \times 10^{-18} \text{ J} \). \( 13.6 \text{ J} \) is incorrect. B. For hydrogen, energy \( E_n = - \frac{13.6 \text{ eV}}{n^2} \). As \( n \) increases, \( E_n \) increases (becomes less…
