The minimum energy required by a hydrogen atom in ground state to emit radiation in Balmer series is nearly _______.
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(12.1 \mathrm{eV}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(E_n = -\frac{13.6}{n^2} \, \mathrm{eV}\)
\(\Delta E = E_3 - E_1\)
\(\Delta E = \left(-\frac{13.6}{3^2}\right) - \left(-\frac{13.6}{1^2}\right)\)
\(\Delta E = 13.6 \left(1 - \frac{1}{9}\right) = 13.6 \left(\frac{8}{9}\right) \approx 12.089 \, \mathrm{eV}\)
\(\Delta E \approx 12.1 \, \mathrm{eV}\)
