A photon of wavelength 300 nm interacts with a stationary hydrogen atom in ground state. During the interaction, whole energy the photon is transferred to the electron of the atom. State which possibility is correst. (Consider, Plank constant \(=4 \times 10^{-15} eV_{s},\) velocity of light \(=3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s},\) ionisation energy of hydrogen \(=13.6 \mathrm{eV}\) )

  1. A Electron will be knocked out of the atom
  2. B Electron will go to any excited state of the atom
  3. C Electron will go only to lirst excited state of the atom
