The maximum in the blackbody radiation intensity curve moves to shorter wavelength as temperature increases. The German physicist Wilhelm Wien demonstrated the relation to be max1/T . Later, Planck’s equation showed the maximum to be max=0.20hc/kt . In 1965, scientists researching problems in telecommunication discovered “background radiation” with maximum wavelength 1.05 mm (microwave region of the EM spectrum) throughout space. Estimate the temperature of space.
Chapter 3 introduced the concept of a double bond between carbon atoms, represented by C=C , with a length near 1.34 Å. The motion of an electron in such a bond can be treated crudely as motion in a one-dimensional box. Calculate the energy of an electron in each of its three lowest allowed states if it is confined to move in a one-dimensional box of length 1.34 Å. Calculate the wavelength of light necessary to excite the electron from its ground state to the first excited state.
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.)
Explain why the wave model for radiation cannot account for the photoelectric effect.
The speed of sound in dry air at 20°C is 343.5ms1 , and the frequency of the sound from the middle C note on a piano is 261.6s1 (according to the American standard pitch scale). Calculate the wavelength of this sound and the time it will take to travel 30.0 m across a concert hall.
The distant galaxy called Cygnus A is one of the strongest sources of radio waves reaching Earth. The distance of this galaxy from Earth is 31024m . How long (in years) does it take a radio wave of wavelength 10 m to reach Earth? What is the frequency of this radio wave?
The L lines for Ca, Zn, Zr, and Sn have wavelengths of 36.3, 11.9,6.07, and 3.60 Å, respectively. Estimate the wavelengths for the L lines for the elements listed in Problem 12-3.
Using Table 5.2, write down the mathematical expression for the 2px wave function for an electronically excited H atom. Estimate the probability of finding the 2px electron if you look in a cubical box of volume of 0.8(pm)3 centered at a distance of 0.5001010m in the =/2 , =0 direction. Does this probability change as you change ? At what angles is the probability of finding the electron smallest and at what angles is the probability the largest? (Note that =2 is the same location as =0 , so don’t double count.)
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.)
A carbon dioxide laser produces radiation of wavelength 10.6 micrometers (1micrometer=106meter). laser produces about one joule of energy per pulse, how many photons are produced per pulse?

In high-temperature sources, sodium atoms emit a doublet with an average wavelength of 1139 nm. The transition responsible is from the 4s to 3p state. Set up a spreadsheet to calculate the ratio of the numberof excited atoms in the 4s state to the number in the ground 3s state over the temperature range from anacetylene-oxygen flame (3000°C) to the hottest part of an inductively coupled plasma source (8750°C).
The Doppler effect is one of the sources of the line broadening in atomic absorption spectroscopy. Atoms moving toward the light source encounter higher-frequency radiation than atoms moving away from the source. The difference in wavelength experienced by an atom moving at speed v (compared to one atrest) is / = v/c , where c is the velocity of light. Estimate the line width (in nanometers) of the lithiumline at 670.776(6707.76 Å) when the absorbing atoms are at a temperature of (a) 2000 K and (b) 3120 K.The average speed of an atom is given by v=8kT/m , where k is Boltzmann’s constant, Tis the absolute temperature, and m is its mass.
