The ground stated energy for the hydrogen atom ... - JAMB Physics 2010 Question

The ground stated energy for the hydrogen atom is 5.44 x 10-19J . If an electron drops from zero energy to ground state, calculate the frequency of the emitted radiation.

[h = 6.6 x 10-34 Js]
A
5.0 x 1016 Hz
B
2.0 x 1016 Hz
C
5.0 x 1015 Hz
D
2.0 x 1015 Hz
correct option: e
Correct Answer: Option E ∆E = hf
f = (∆E)/h = (5.44 x 10-19)/6.6 x 10-34 = 8.24 x 1014
