MCQ
The maximum energy is possessed by an electrons, when it is present
- Ain nucleus
- Bin ground energy state
- Cin first excited state
- ✓at infinite distance from the nucleus
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
at infinite distance from the nucleus
d
As we know that $E_n\, \propto\,\left[-\frac{1}{n^2}\right]$ where $n$ is the number of orbit. Hence, as the value of $n$ increases, energy of the electron also increases. Hence, when $n$ becomes infinite, energy also becomes infinite. Hence, due to this reason maximum energy is possessed by an electron, when it is present at infinite distance from the nucleus.
