Let and be the energy of an electron in the first and second excited states of hydrogen atom, respectively. According to the Bohr’s model of an atom; the ratio is:
To solve this problem, we need to determine the energy levels of an electron in a hydrogen atom according to Bohr's model.The energy of an electron in the energy level of a hydrogen atom is given by: eVwhere is the principal quantum number.For the first excited state, eVFor the second excited state, eVNow, we find the ratio Simplify the ratio:Therefore, the ratio is This corresponds to Option 4.
