What is the total energy of an electron at an infinite distance from the nucleus in an atom?

Assertion : Between any two given energy levels,the number of absorption transitions is always less than the number of emission transitions.
Reason : Absorption transitions start from the lowest energy level only and may end at any higher energy level. But emission transitions may start from any higher energy level and end at any energy level below it.

An electron collides with a hydrogen atom in its ground state and excites it to the $n=3$ state. The energy given to the hydrogen atom in this inelastic collision (neglecting the recoil of the hydrogen atom) is (in $\text{ eV}$)

The energy required to remove an electron in a hydrogen atom from $n = 10$ state is (in $\text{ eV}$)

$A$ monochromatic light is incident on a hydrogen sample in the ground state. Hydrogen atoms absorb a fraction of light and subsequently emit radiation of six different wavelengths. The frequency of incident light is $x \times 10^{15} \ Hz$. The value of $x$ is (Given $h = 4.25 \times 10^{-15} \ eVs$)
