Detailed Solution

The energy of an electron in a orbit of a hydrogen like ion will be given by $E = - \frac{13.6}{n^{2}} z^{2}$

Energy of second excited state of hydrogen = $E = - \frac{13.6}{3^{2}} 1^{2} = - 1.5 eV$

Energy of fourth state of He⁺= $E = - \frac{13.6}{5^{2}} 2^{2} = - 3.4 eV$

Energy absorbed when the electron in Li²⁺ makes transition from 3^rd to 1^st orbit $∆ E = - (\frac{1}{1^{2}} - \frac{1}{3^{2}}) \times 13.6 \times 3^{2} = - 108.8 eV$
