    Direction: According to the 6ohr model, the energy levels of a hydrogen atom can be found by making two assumptions.
    (i) The electrons move in a circular orbit and (ii) the angular momentum of the electron in the n\[th\]energy level is quantized to have a value,\[n\frac{h}{2\pi }\]. The levels calculated with a nuclear charge \[Ze\] deals with a single electron in the orbit are called hydrogenic levels. Assume that the two electrons in the ground, state of a helium atom occupy the corresponding lowest hydrogenic level.
    The minimum repulsive energy between the two electrons would then be

    A)  3.4 eV                        

    B)  6.8 eV           

    C)  13.6eV          

    D)  27.2eV

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     As,                  \[U=2E\]                     \[\Rightarrow \]            \[\frac{-k(Z{{e}^{2}})}{r}=2\,(-54.4)\] \[\Rightarrow \]            \[\frac{k{{e}^{2}}}{r}=54.4\,eV\] Minimum repulsive energy between the two electrons \[=\frac{k{{e}^{2}}}{2r}=\frac{54.4}{2}=27.2\,eV\]
