  2. B \(-4.36 \times 10^{-18} \mathrm{~J}\)
  3. C \(-6.54 \times 10^{-18} \mathrm{~J}\)
  4. D \(-8.72 \times 10^{-18} \mathrm{~J}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(-8.72 \times 10^{-18} \mathrm{~J}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For the first orbit of monopositive \(\mathrm{He}^{+}\)ion,
\(Z=2, n=1\)
\(E_n=-2.18 \times 10^{-18}\left(\frac{Z^2}{n^2}\right) J\)
\(\therefore E_1=-2.18 \times 10^{-18}\left(\frac{2^2}{1^2}\right)=\) \(-8.72 \times 10^{-18} \mathrm{J}\)
