A photon strikes a hydrogen atom with enough energy to remove an electron in the n=4 energy level and send it flying off at 8.00X105 meters per second. Use the work function of the hydrogen atom and the kinetic energy equation to calculate the wavelength of the photon in nanometers. These equations may be helpful E = -2.18 × 10-18 J x 1/12/2 E = 1/2mv² E = h h=6.626X10-34 J+S c= 3.00X108 m/s mass of electron = 9.11X10-31 kg
Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
