The kinetic energy of an electron in the 2nd excited state in a hydrogen atom, if its ground state energy is \(-13.6 \text{ eV}\), will be:
- A 13.6 eV
- B 3.4 eV
- C 1.51 eV
- D 0.85 eV
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 1.51 eV
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(n = 3\) \(KE_n = -\frac{E_1}{n^2}\) \(KE_3 = -\frac{-13.6 \text{ eV}}{3^2}\) \(KE_3 = \frac{13.6}{9} \text{ eV}\) \(KE_3 \approx 1.51 \text{ eV}\)

Recombinant DNA Technology
Asexual reproduction preserves the genetic information, while sexual reproduction permits variation. Traditional hybridization procedures used in plants and animals breeding very often lead to inclusion and multiplication of undesirable genes along with the desired genes. The techniques of genetic engineering, which include creation of recombinant DNA, use of gene cloning and gene transfer, overcome this limitation and allow us to isolate and introduce only one or a set of desirable genes without introducing genes into the target organism.
In Recombinant DNA Technology, what is the role of the "selectable marker gene"?CUET 2025 Hard - In an experiment, a student measures the terminal potential difference (\( V \)) of a cell (emf \( E \) and internal resistance \( r \)) as a function of current \( I \) and plots a graph with \( V \) on the y-axis and \( I \) on the x-axis.
