AnswEr:

If the number \sf\:2_n ends with digit zero, then it should be divisible by 5.

We know that, Any Number with unit place as 5 and 0 is divisible by 5.

\rule{200}2

Now,

\dag Prime Factorisation of number \sf\:2_n = (2 \times\; 1)^n

Here we can see that the prime Factorisation of the number \sf\:2_n doesn't contains 5 as a prime Number.

\rule{200}2

Now we can say that for any natural number n, the number \sf\:2_n is not divisible by 5.

Thus, \sf\:2_n cannot end with the Digit zero (0) for any Natural number n.
