For a certain hypothetical one electron atom, the wavelength `(in Å)` for the spectral lines for transitions originating at n=p and terminating at n=1 are given by `lambda = (1500 p^2)/(p^2 - 1), where p = 2,3,4` (a)Find the wavelength of the least energetic and the most energetic photons in this series.(b) Construct an energy level diagram for this element showing the energies of the lowest three levels. (c ) What is the ionization potential of this element?A. `3.96 V`B. `9.23 V`C. `6.34 V`D. `8.28 V`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
The ionization potential corresponds to energy required to librate an electron from its ground state. i.e., ionization energy `= 8.28 eV`
Hence, ionization potential `= 8.28 V`
