Solution
The correct option is C2.55 It is given that the quantisation rule followed in aliens' planet is as follows: mvr=nh4π
The change in quantisation rule will not affect the energy difference. The energy difference (in eV) is given by the expression =En−E′n=−13.6×[1n2−1n′2]
We need to find the energy difference between fourth and second orbits. E4−E2=−13.6[142−122] E4−E2=−13.6×[0.0625−0.25]=−13.6×(−0.1875)=2.55 eV Hence, the energy difference between fourth and second orbits for H atom is 2.55 eV.
