उत्तर
increases
The electric potential energy of hydrogen atom with electron at the nth state is given by
V = - `(2xx13.6)/n^2`
As the value of n increases, the potential energy of the hydrogen atom also increases, i.e. the atom becomes less bound as n increases.

In the Auger process an atom makes a transition to a lower state without emitting a photon. The excess energy is transferred to an outer electron which may be ejected by the atom. (This is called an Auger electron).
