Calculate the energy required for the process
The ionization energy for the H atom in the ground state is 2.18 ×10–18 J atom–1
For H like particles,
En = - 2π2mZ2e4 / n2h2
For H atom I.E = E – E1 = 0 – (- 2π2me4 / 12h2) = 2π2me4 / h2
= 2.18x 10-18J /atom (given)
For the given process, energy required = En – E1
= 0 - ( - 2π2me4 / 12h2)
= 4 x 2π2me4 / h2
= 4 x 2.18 x 10-18J
= 8.72 x 10-18 J
