Consider a hydrogen-like atom whose energy in the $n^{th}$ excited state is given by $E_n = - \frac{13.6 Z^2}{n^2}$. When this excited atom makes a transition from an excited state to the ground state, the most energetic photons have energy $E_{max} = 52.224 \ eV$ and the least energetic photons have energy $E_{min} = 1.224 \ eV$. The atomic number of the atom is:
