An electron is excited from the n=1 ground state to the n=3 state in a hydrogen atom. Which of the following statements are true? Correct the false statements to make them true. (It may help to draw the Bohr model of the atom with the corresponding electron orbits.)a. It takes more energy to ionize (completely remove) the electron from n = 3 than from the ground state.b. The electron is farther from the nucleus on average in the n = 3 state than in the n = 1 state.c. The wavelength of light emitted if the electron drops from n = 3 to n = 2 will be shorter than the wavelength of light emitted if the electron falls from n = 3 to n = 1.d.
