    The minimum energy required to excite a hydrogen atom from its ground state is [EAMCET (Engg.) 1995; MP PMT 1997; CPMT 1999; DCE 1999]

    A)            13.6 eV                                   

    B)            \[-13.6\ eV\]

    C)            3.4eV                                      

    D)            10.2 eV

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                       Minimum energy required to excite from ground state            \[=13.6\left[ \frac{1}{{{1}^{2}}}-\frac{1}{{{2}^{2}}} \right]=10.2\ eV\]
