NEET Physics Bohr Model MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium
In the nth orbit, the energy of an electron Eₙ = -13.6/n² eV for hydrogen atom. The energy required to take the electron from first orbit to second orbit will be
A
10.2 eV
B
12.1 eV
C
13.6 eV
D
3 eV
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The energy difference between the first and second orbit is E₂ - E₁ = -13.6/4 + 13.6 = 10.2 eV.
