As one considers orbits with higher values of n in a hydrogen atom, the electric potential energy of the atom

Question

increases The electric potential energy of hydrogen atom with electron at the nth state is given by V = - (2xx13.6)/n^2 As the value of n increases, the potential energy of the hydrogen atom also increases, i.e. the atom becomes less bound as n increases.
