    If the energy of a hydrogen atom in \[n\]th orbit is \[{{E}_{rv}}\] then energy in the \[n\]th orbit of a singly ionized helium atom will be:                                                                                                                                                       [BHU PMT-2004]

    A)  \[4{{E}_{n}}\]                                   

    B)  \[{{E}_{n}}/4\]

    C)  \[2{{E}_{n}}\]                                   

    D)  \[{{E}_{n}}/2\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Key Idea: Atomic number of helium is twice that of hydrogen. When \[e\], \[m\] are the change and mass of electron in the \[n\]th orbit, \[h\] is Planck?s coustant and \[Z\] is the atomic number, then the energy of the electron in the electron in the \[n\]th orbit is                                                     \[E=-\frac{M\,{{Z}^{2}}{{e}^{4}}}{8\,{{\varepsilon }_{0}}{{h}^{2}}}.\frac{1}{{{n}^{2}}}\] Given, \[{{Z}_{H}}=1,\,{{Z}_{He}}=2\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{E}_{H}}}{{{E}_{He}}}=\frac{Z_{H}^{2}}{Z_{He}^{2}}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{E}_{He}}=4\,{{E}_{H}}\] Given,                   \[{{E}_{H}}={{E}_{n}}\]                                                 \[{{E}_{He}}=4{{E}_{n}}\]
