Answer:
Kinetic energy of electron α V2.
Velocity of an electron at nth level=V0Xnz
Where V0= velocity of electron in ground state of hydrogen atom.
∴ Kinetic energy of electron αn21.
As the distance for nucleus increases, the value of n increases. Consequently the kinetic energy of the electron decreases as distance from the nucleus increases.
