Consider a hydrogen-like ionized atom with atomic number $Z$ with a single electron. In the emission spectrum of this atom,the photon emitted in the $n = 2$ to $n = 1$ transition has energy $74.8 \ eV$ higher than the photon emitted in the $n = 3$ to $n = 2$ transition. The ionization energy of the hydrogen atom is $13.6 \ eV$. The value of $Z$ is:

  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $8$
  • D
    $9$
