Easy INTEGER +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2023

If the binding energy of ground state electron in a hydrogen atom is $13.6\, \mathrm{eV}$, then, the energy required to remove the electron from the second excited state of $\mathrm{Li}^{2+}$ will be : $x \times 10^{-1} \mathrm{eV}$. The value of $x$ is ________.

Answer (integer) 136

Solution

$\mathrm{E}_{H}=13.6$ <br/><br/>$$ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{Li}^{2+}}=13.6 \frac{Z^{2}}{n^{2}}=13.6 \times \frac{9}{9}=13.6 \mathrm{eV} \\\\ & =136 \times 10^{-1} \mathrm{eV} \end{aligned} $$
