⇒ x = 315.507
We can not calculate I.E. of lithium atom. ⇒ 10x = 3155 (nearest integer)

h = 6.63 × 10−34 Js, c = 3.00 × 108 ms−1
[ JEE MAIN 2021 ]
Solution:
Energy emitted in 0.1 sec.
= 0.1 sec · ×10−3 sJ
= 10−4 J
If ′ n′ photons of λ = 1000 nm are emitted,
then ; 10−4 = n × hc λ
n×6.63×10−34 ×3×108
⇒ 10−4 = 1000×10−9
⇒n= 5.02 × 1014 = 50.2 × 1013
⇒ 50 (nearest integer)
