$(E_2 - E_1) > (E_3 - E_2) > (E_4 - E_3)$

Vedclass · Answer

(A) For a hydrogen-like species,the energy of an orbit is given by $E_n = -13.6 	imes \frac{Z^2}{n^2} 	ext{ eV}$.For $n=1, 2, 3, 4$,the energy values are $E_1 = -13.6 Z^2, E_2 = -3.4 Z^2, E_3 = -1.51 Z^2, E_4 = -0.85 Z^2$.Calculating the energy differences:$(E_2 - E_1) = (-3.4 - (-13.6)) Z^2 = 10.2 Z^2$$(E_3 - E_2) = (-1.51 - (-3.4)) Z^2 = 1.89 Z^2$$(E_4 - E_3) = (-0.85 - (-1.51)) Z^2 = 0.66 Z^2$Comparing these values,we find that $(E_2 - E_1) > (E_3 - E_2) > (E_4 - E_3)$.
