  1. Question 1

    Q1. The energy of an electron in the nth orbit is given by

    • A) E = -13.6 / n eV
    • B) E = -13.6 / n² eV
    • C) E = -13.6 n² eV
    • D) E = -13.6 n eV

    Answer: E = -13.6 / n² eV

    Explanation: Using Bohr's model, energy is inversely proportional to n², hence E = -13.6 / n² eV.
