Question:

Match List – I with List – II.

List – I
 (Total energy eV) 

List – II
 (States of electron in Hydrogen atom) 

 1. –3.40

 (I) At infinity

 2. –13.6

 (II) I excited state

 3. 0

 (III) Ground state

 4. –0.85

 (IV) III excited state

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

(1) - (II), (2) – (III), (3) – (I), (D) – (IV)

(1) - (III), (2) – (I), (3) – (II), (D) – (IV)

(1) - (IV), (2) – (I), (3) – (III), (D) – (II)

(1) - (I), (2) – (II), (3) – (III), (D) – (IV)

Correct Answer:

(1) - (II), (2) – (III), (3) – (I), (D) – (IV)

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → (1) - (II), (2) – (III), (3) – (I), (D) – (IV)

For H-atom (Energy)

$\underset{(n=1)}{\text {Ground state }} E_I=\frac{-13.6}{1^2} eV=-13.6 eV$

$\underset{(n=2)}{I^{st}\text { excited state }} E_{II}=\frac{-13.6}{2^2} eV=-3.4 eV$

$\underset{(n=4)}{{III}^{rd}\text { excited state }} E_{IV}=\frac{-13.6}{4^2} eV=-8.5 eV$

$\underset{(n=\infty)}{\text { For ionisation }} E_{\infty}=\frac{-13.6}{\infty}=0$
