How do you solve the hydrogenic wave functions for HF? I am most unsure of what angle to use for cos, what r represents? internuclear distance is 2 a.u and wavefunction will be calculated in steps of 0.1au. Thanks 1 73/2,-IZrl 1 75/2re-IZr/2 cose 4v2n

In a FranckHertz experiment on sodium atoms, the first excitation threshold occurs at 2.103 eV. Calculate the wavelength of emitted light expected just above this threshold. (Note: Sodium vapor lamps used in street lighting emit spectral lines with wavelengths 5891.8 and 5889.9 Å.)

Estimate the probability of finding an electron which is excited into the 2s orbital of the H atom, looking in a cubical box of volume 0.751036m3 centered at the nucleus. Then estimate the probability of finding the electron if you move the volume searched to a distance of 105.8 pm from the nucleus in the positive z direction. (Note that since these volumes are small, it does not matter whether the volume searched is cubical or spherical.)

What are the values of E, L, and Lz for an F8+ atom whose electron has the following wavefunctions, listed as n,l,ml? a 1,0,0 b 3,2,2c 2,1,1d 9,6,3.

What are the degeneracies of the H atom wavefunctions when spin is accounted for? Give a general formula.

A particle of mass m is placed in a three-dimensional rectangular box with edge lengths 2L, L, and L. Inside the box the potential energy is zero, and outside it is infinite; therefore, the wave function goes smoothly to zero at the sides of the box. Calculate the energies and give the quantum numbers of the ground state and the first five excited states (or sets of states of equal energy) for the particle in the box.

Explain why the wave model for radiation cannot account for the photoelectric effect.

Using a simple particle-in-a-box model for the multiple bonding in 1,2-butadiene (see Example 4.7) and the n=2 wave function for the weakest bound electron, calculate the probability of finding the electron in an 0.1 interval centered midway between the two inner carbon atoms (that is, the center is at x=2.11 , so this interval is from x1=2.06 to x2=2.16 ). Then calculate the probability of finding the electron in an 0.1 interval centered midway between an end carbon atom and the carbon atom that is double-bonded to it in the Lewis dot structure. (You may calculate the appropriate integrals or estimate the relevant areas under the curve graphically.) Then recalculate the probabilities by approximating the integral as |( x 0)|2x , where x0 is evaluated in the middle of the range from x1 to x2 . Finally, explain why you can’t approximate the integral needed for Problem 37(a) in this way.

The Lyman series of spectral lines for the H atom, in the ultraviolet region, arises from transitions from higher levels to n = 1. Calculate the frequency and wavelength of the least energetic line in this series.

Spin orbitals are products of spatial and spin wavefunctions, but correct antisymmetric forms of wavefunctions for multielectron atoms are sums and differences of spatial wavefunctions. Explain why acceptable antisymmetric wavefunctions are sums and differences that is, combinations instead of products of spatial wavefunctions.
