Question

How much energy would be released as an electron moved from the n=4 to the n=3 energy level?

Answer 1

The energy released when electron move from n=4 to n=3 is 0.66 eV

We know that in an atom energy of nth state is

                                     $E_n = -13.6/n^{2}$  eV

where n is the energy level

Therefore,

                   $E_4 = -13.6/4^{2} \\E_3 = -13.6/3^{2}$

Thus, $E_4$  =   -0.85eV

         $E_3$  =  -1.51eV

Therefore, total mount of energy released in moving electron from n=4 to n=3 is given by -

                                       $E_4 -E_3$

                                   =  -0.85 - ( -1.51)

                                   = 0.66eV
