Please hlelp me answer this

What statement best relates the energy of an electron and the distance between the electron and a proton. An electron is always the same distance from the proton no matter what the amount of energy lost or gained. As an electron moves further away from a proton it loses an amount of energy that is related to the the change in distance between the proton and the electron. The magnitude of the force is related to the distance between the electron and the proton but not the energy. As an electron moves closer to a proton it loses an amount of energy that is inversely proportional to the change in distance between the proton and the electron.

Explanation / Answer

As the electron moves closet to a proton it loses an amount of energy that is inversely proportional to the distance between the proton and the electron.

Therefore last option was the correct one.
