Experimentally it is found that $12.8\,eV$ energy is required to separate a hydrogen atom into a proton and an electron. So the orbital radius of the electron in a hydrogen atom is $\frac{9}{ x } \times 10^{-10}\,m$. The value of the $x$ is $\left(1\,eV =1.6 \times 10^{-19}\,J , \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0}=9 \times 10^9\,Nm ^2 / C ^2\right.$ and electronic charge $=1.6 \times 10^{-19}\,J\,C$ )
