To determine

The reason behind ionization energies are explained in terms of atomic structure.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
a) Calculate the excitation energies for the 1s → 3p electron transition for the H-atom and for the He+-ion. Calculate the energy values in joules. b) What is the ionization energy (in eV) of H-atom in the 4d-state? Note: En = 2n² Eh, 1Eh = 27.2114eV = 2625.500kJ/mol = 4.35974394-10-18 J
A hypothetical atom has only two atomic energy levels, separated by 3.2 eV. Suppose that at a certain altitude in the atmosphere of a star there are 6.1 * 1013/cm3 of these atoms in the higher-energy state and 2.5 * 1015/cm3 in the lower-energy state. What is the temperature of the star’s atmosphere at that altitude?
Use the information in Table to determine the ground state spectroscopic symbol for indium.
