Supposing the energy (in arbitrary units) of the energy levels in the hydrogen atom is given as under:
Energy level $K$ $(n=1)$ $L$ $(n=2)$ $M$ $(n=3)$ $N$ $(n=4...n=\infty)$
Energy $-864 \ a.u.$ $-216 \ a.u.$ $-96 \ a.u.$ $0 \ a.u.$

The excitation energy needed to raise the electron from $M$ level to $n = \infty$ would be:

  • A
    $192$
  • B
    $96$
  • C
    $188$
  • D
    $384$
