Q5 / 90 · JEE Main 2019 (10 Jan Shift 2) · Chemistry

The ground state energy of a hydrogen atom is -13.6 eV. The energy of second excited state of He+ ion in eV is:

  • A
    -27.2
  • Correct answer
    B
    -6.04
  • C
    -3.4
  • D
    -54.4

Solution

E=-13.6z2n2=-13.62232=-6.04 eV

(Second exited state=Third shell, n=3)

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
