6.32 What are the mathematical origins of quantum numbers?
According to a relationship developed by Niels Bohr, for an atom or ion that has a single electron, the total energy, En, of an electron in a stable orbit of quantum number n is En = [Z2/n2] (2.179 1018 J) where Z is the atomic number. Calculate the ionization energy for the electron in a ground-state He+ ion.
How does probability fit into the description of the atom?
One type of solar radiation in the upper atmosphere has a frequency of 7.898 1014 Hz; another type has a frequency of 1.20 1015 Hz. (a) In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum does this solar radiation occur? (b) Which of the two types of radiation has the shorter wavelength? Explain your answer.
A particular microwave oven delivers 750 watts. (A watt is a unit of power, which is the joules of energy delivered, or used, per second.) If the oven uses microwave radiation of wavelength 12.6 cm, how many photons of this radiation are required to heat 1.00 g of water 1.00C, assuming that all of the photons are absorbed?
(a) Which color in the visible spectrum has the highest frequency? Which has the lowest frequency? (b) Is the wavelength of the radiation used in a microwave oven (2.45 GHz) longer or shorter than that from your favorite FM radio station (for example, 91.7 MHz)? (c) Are the wavelengths of x-rays longer or shorter than those of ultraviolet light? (d) Calculate the frequency of green light with a wavelength of 510. nm.
A hydrogen atom in the ground stale absorbs a photon whose wavelength is 95.0 nm. The resulting excited atom then emits a photon of 1282 nm. What are the regions of the electromagnetic spectrum for the radiations involved in these transitions? What is the principal quantum number of the final state resulting from the emission from the excited atom?
In X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, a material can be analyzed for its constituent elements by radiating the material with short-wavelength X rays, which induce the atoms to emit longer-wavelength X rays characteristic of those atoms. Tungsten, for example, emits characteristic X rays of wavelength 0.1476 nm. If an electron has an equivalent wavelength, what is its kinetic energy?
