Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the following:(a) electrons that have been accelerated to a kineticenergy of 1.20 × 107 J mol-1(b) a helium atom moving at a speed of 353 m s-1 (the root-mean-square speed of helium atoms at 20 K)(c) a krypton atom moving at a speed of 299 m s-1(the root-mean-square speed of krypton atoms at 300 K)
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.
Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the following:
(a) electrons that have been accelerated to a kinetic
energy of 1.20 × 107 J mol-1
(b) a helium atom moving at a speed of 353 m s-1 (the root-mean-square speed of helium atoms at 20 K)
(c) a krypton atom moving at a speed of 299 m s-1
(the root-mean-square speed of krypton atoms at 300 K)
