The energy required to remove an electron from the inner most orbit of the hydrogen atom to a distance far away from its nucleus is

  1. A \(-13.6 eV\)
  2. B \(13.6 eV\)
  3. C \(3.4 eV\)
  4. D \(0 eV\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(13.6 eV\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(E_n = -13.6 \frac{Z^2}{n^2} \) \(E_{required} = -E_1 = -(-13.6 \frac{1^2}{1^2}) \) \(E_{required} = 13.6 eV \)
