An electron in the hydrogen atom jumps from excited state n to the ground state. The wavelength so emitted illuminates a photosensitive material having work function 2.75 eV. If the stopping potential of the photoelectron is 10 V, the value of n is
Options
(a) 3
(b) 4
(c) 5
(d) 2
Correct Answer:
4
Explanation:
KEₘₐₓ = 10 eV ? = 2.75 eV
Total incident energy
E = ? + KEₘₐₓ = 12.75 eV
Energy is released when electron jumps from the excited state n to the ground state.
E₄ – E₁ = {-0.85 – (-13.6) eV}
= 12.75 eV value of n = 4.
