  1. Question 1

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

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

    Answer: E_n = -13.6 / n² eV

    Explanation: The energy of the electron in the nth orbit is inversely proportional to n², given by Bohr's model, E_n = -13.6 / n² eV.
