Consider a hydrogen-like sample of gas whose energy in thenthstate is given byEn=-13.6Z2n2eV. When the electron makes transitions from an excited state to the ground state, most energetic photons can have energyEmax=52.224eVand the least energetic photons can have energyEmin=1.224eV. The atomic number of the atom and the state of excitation are respectively

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

52.224=13.6z2 112-1n2 .....(1)

1.224=13.6z2 1n-12-1n2 .....(2)

On solving we getz = 2andn = 5which means 4 th excited state
