The energy of H-atom is \mathrm{E}=-13.6 \times\frac{ \mathrm{Z}^{2 }}{ \mathrm{n}^{2}}
for H-atom Z=1 for the ground state, n=1
\Rightarrow \mathrm{E}=-13.6 \times \frac{1^{2}}{1^{2}}=-13.6 \mathrm{eV}
Now for carbon atom (single ionized), Z=6
\mathrm{E}=-13.6 \frac{\mathrm{Z}^{2}}{\mathrm{n}^{2}}=-13.6 \\ \quad \Rightarrow \mathrm{n}^{2}=6^{2} \Rightarrow \mathrm{n}=6
