Calculate the energy required to ionize a hydrogen atom to an excited state where the electron is initially in the n = 5 energy level. report your answer in kilojoules

The value of ionization energy is .

Explanation:

where,

= energy of orbit

n = number of orbit

Z = atomic number

We are given: Z = 1 , n= 5

Z = 1 , n = ∞

Ionization energy to ionize the hydrogen atom where electron is present in n=5 initially will equal to the difference between energy of electron at infinity from the energy of electron at n = 5 energy level.

The value of ionization energy is .

answer; 4 electrons;
