Chapter 39, Problem 043 In the ground state of the hydrogen atom, the electron has a total energy of -13.6 ev. What are (a) its kinetic energy and (b) its potential energy if the electron is a distance 4.0a from the central nucleus? Here a is the Bohr radius. (a) Number Units eV (b) Number Units eV
As per Bohr model of a hydrogen atom for a stable orbit centripetal, Coulomb, and all forces should be in equilibrium. Therefore, for an electron with mass me and speed v₁ on the nth orbit with radius rn, (k being Coulomb/s constant) mevn = ke²/rn mevn² = ke²/rn mevn²/rn = ke²/rn 2.2 Ome²v² = ke²/r²
Determine the distance between the electron and proton in an atom if the potential energy U of the electron is 10.1 eV (electronvolt, 1 eV = 1.6 × 10-19 J). Give your answer in Angstrom (1 A = 10-10 m). Answer: Choose... +
