The total energy of an electron in the ground state of hydrogen atom is `- 13.6 eV`. The potiential energy of an electron in the ground state of `Li ^(2+)` ion will beA. `122.4 eV`B. `- 122.4 eV`C. `244.8 eV`D. `-244.8 eV`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`E_(P) = - k e^(2)/( r) , E = - k e^(2)/(2 r)`
So, `E_(P) = 2 E = 2 (- 13.6) eV = - 27.2 eV`
Potential energy of electron in the ground state of `L i^(2 +)` ion is `= - 3 xx 27.2 eV or - 244.8 eV`
