Energy required to completely separate the electron and proton in a hydrogen atom is ground state in Joule is 

a
12.42×10−20J
b
8.96×10−18J
c
2.4×10−19J
d
21.76×10−19J

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Energy of electron in the ground state of hydrogen atom = -13.6 eV∴ So energy to be supplied to the atom to completely separate the electron from the proton=13.6 eV=13.6×1.6×10−19J=21.76×10-19J
